THIS country is making the most dangerous 6th Gen fighter aircraft…, its name is…, testing is being done quietly for 5 months
In a bid to replace the F-22, the US Air Force has signed a historic deal with Boeing Company in March 2025. It has also ordered the next generation fighter aircraft F-47 which will be America’s sixth generation stealth fighter jet and would be deployed in place of existing fighter aircraft like F-22.
This deal is considered a big win for Boeing, as Lockheed Martin has dominated this field for the last two decades. State-of-the-art fighter jets like the F-22 and F-35 are Lockheed Martin’s creation. However, the US Defense Department has not disclosed the price of this new deal.
Why is fighter jet F-47 special?
Fighter jet F-47 is special because it will incorporate two important technologies from Boeing – the MQ-28 Ghost Bat drone and the stealth technology of the B-21 Raider. These technologies will enable it to completely hide from enemy radars. The F-47 is being equipped with technologies that will make it faster, more deadly and smarter than all fighter jets till date.
What has President Donald Trump claimed?
Described the F-47 as a fighter plane that works like a super-computer, the US President Donald Trump has claimed that US’ next generation fighter jet F-47 has been secretly testing for the last five months and it will be included in the US Air Force fleet by the year 2030. He said that, not just for its technical features, this jet will become an example for the whole world not only for its speed and lethality.
What is the price of F-47?
The cost of this advanced fighter jet will be around $20 million (about Rs 167 crore). Military experts believe that the F-47 can completely change the world’s warfare strategy in the coming years. Its speed, stealth and network capability can make it decisive in any modern war.
