The United States has always been determined to remain the world’s leading military and technology superpower. It will never allow China to become a superpower, especially with sophisticated defense technology. As tensions escalate and China intensifies its military capabilities, specifically with air combat systems, the U.S. has started to fight back.
In a bold move to stay ahead of China in the development of air combat systems, the Trump administration committed significant funding toward the F-47 sixth-generation fighter—a next-generation aircraft that will rule the skies for decades to come. The advanced jet will be developed under the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program, which aims to keep the U.S. well ahead of advancements like the J-36 and J-50 by China.
On June 10, U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke to Congress and described the F-47 project as “decisive for future wars,” highlighting that this investment is not simply a technological effort, but a key pillar of national security. This bold move comes in direct response to China’s recent developments with its air power, particularly advancements in fighter jets like the J-36 and J-50. The message is unmistakable, in the coming years, air dominance will be critical to all balance in international geopolitics.
The F-47 is being developed as a genuine sixth-generation fighter — not just any fighter, but a “smart warrior” in the air. This is like a flying supercomputer, built to think faster and smarter than anyone else. The contract has been awarded by the United States to Boeing, and the F-47 will be the next iteration after the F-22 Raptor. It has a major design emphasis on reduced radar cross section (stealth), next-gen adaptive-cycle engine technologies for increased range and speed while denying enemy radar through a combination of flying characteristics, several levels of AI-assisted functionality, and other stealth technology. What’s really exciting is Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) capabilities. The joint operations of F-47 and autonomous drones that act as “wingmen,” are intended to operate [as separate mission sets — surveillance, electronic warfare — or surgical strikes.] In short, the F-47 will not just be a fighter jet; it will be a fighter squadron all by itself, and a force multiplier.
The main motivation for the U.S. developing its sixth-generation fighter jet is to keep China from achieving air superiority at all costs. Intelligence reports indicate that China’s new advanced jets, the J-36 and J-50, have already begun flight training programs by late 2024. It is currently multi-role reconnaissance in flight. Reports suggest that the J-36 has a tri-jet configuration, a tailless double delta wing design, and weight capacity to operate in distance. The J-36 has not only stealth technology, but may also have electronic warfare and possibly laser defense. The J-50 has thrust vectoring engines and compact design suitable for carriers, making it deployable on the next generation of Chinese aircraft carriers.
The F-47 fighter is being deliberately built for A2/AD (Anti-Access/Area Denial) conditions—areas with enemy air defense systems so effective that traditional manned aircraft can’t even get there. The F-47 will be armed with stealth capabilities, AI-enabled decision making, and supercruise capability. The F-47 will be able penetrate complex hostile A2/AD environments, and blow stuff up close up. Our fusion engine will enable longer ranges, faster speeds, and better thermal management. This means it can fly further using less fuel, thus avoiding radar detection, and make better decisions faster in combat. In important areas like the Indo-Pacific region, the F-47 will give the U.S. military a distinct advantage against China in their ability to provide forward basing and power projection, which is necessary in ensuring dominance.
