Trump Announces F-47, the Air Force’s New Sixth-Gen Fighter Built by Boeing
#6
This is what you may have previously known as a T-47 - the star wars snowspeeder from Hoth.



Unfortunately after Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing conflict there it seems obvious that expensive high end airpower is not terribly effective when compared to numerous inexpensive drones.

You can take down multimillion dollar air superiority fighter with a drone costing just a few thousand dollars, and they're more effective for many of the ground support roles as well. If a drone gets taken out, the pilot (if there is one at all and it's not autonomously guided) lives on and can launch another so long as their stocked in the supply room and adequate to the mission.
