The F117a isn’t actually that bad. It’s very unstable, mind, but it’s not relying on brute force for lift.
It’s not fast at all. Its slowness is a design feature since going fast reduces stealth- by generating more heat in the exhaust and more noise. It also means the engines can be smaller which reduces the size of the engines (which, the fans are a nice flat surface to generate returns off of,)
