Inside America's 6th-gen arsenal: B-21, F-47, and the future of air dominance
[FoxNews] B-21 Raider already in flight tests as Air Force and Navy pursue divergent paths for future air dominance.

F-47 AND THE NGAD REVIVAL
Once stalled, the Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program roared back to life this spring under a new name and a new contract. Now designated the F-47, the program – awarded to Boeing – is designed to be the most advanced manned fighter in U.S. history. Its capabilities will include stealth, extended range, speeds exceeding Mach 2 and integration with a new class of AI-enabled drones called Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA).

The F-47 will serve as the "quarterback" for a team of 1,000 CCAs, controlling them in battle and coordinating sensor and targeting data in real time.

#1 Are they unmaned? If not, a waste of time.
