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.

This country is building World's deadliest fighter jet; will hunt down China's J-36, J-50, even F-22 will become junk; name is..., cost is...
Once thought of as exceptional events, conflicts of all kinds are now occurring with alarming frequency across the globe, featuring all the atrocities of war, whether it be state-to-state wars, proxy wars, cyber wars, or border clashes. In March 2025, about five months ago, the U.S. Air Force officially signed a contract with Boeing to produce a sixth-generation F-47 fighter jet. The F-47 fighter jet is part of America's strategy to refresh its fleet with next-generation aircraft. The contract is also one of the most significant defense contracts Boeing has been given in decades, although the financial details of the contract have not yet been made public. Prior to now, Lockheed Martin, the company that has been considered to be the leader of military aviation with their F-22 and F-35 fighter jets, has remained the prior industry leader in their development of the fighter jets. The main aim of the F-47 program is to replace the aging F-22 stealth fighters that have served the U.S. military for almost twenty years. Now, questions that will arise are whether the U.S. has changed its military strategy. And what exactly is the F-47 specially? Will this fighter jet forge a new path in modern warfare globally? Boeing will create what may become the world's most lethal aircraft. The F-47 will be Boeing's first clean-sheet fighter jet design, utilizing much more advanced versions of the MQ-28 Ghost Bat drone systems and B-21 Raider stealth technology. It is expected that the F-47 will fly at twice the speed of Mach 2 and have a range beyond 1,000 nautical miles. No other air vehicle is expected to achieve anything close in speed, mobility, or payload capacity. These characteristics mean not only is the F-47 also the fastest, it is also the longest-range combat air vehicle ever designed. U.S. President Donald Trump has stated that the F-47 fighter jet has been going through covert test flights for five months. He claims the aircraft is already in stealth trial mode and is expected to be officially in the U.S. Air Force by 2030. The F-47 will behave like a supercomputer in the sky. Special details and attention have gone into realizing its design with a stealth-friendly design, AI-compatible avionics, and an adaptive-cycle engine, which makes it one of the most advanced fighter jets conceived to date. This aircraft will be virtually undetectable to the enemy radar. One of its significant features is the Collaborative Combat Aircraft System so it can operate not just as a jet but as part of a fully integrated combat network. The expected cost will be around $20 million. Experts state that this fighter jet could be the most significant presence on any battlefield anywhere in the world. The F-47 won't fly alone—despite being a single aircraft, it will possess the strength of an entire squadron. Like a flying supercomputer, the F-47 will share data with ships, satellites and ground-based units at once and in real time, and it will assess things as it needs to adjust to make mission work better.
