FA-XX: The US Navy's 6th Generation Fighter Jet Explained

[@olindbck]

Internal space for long range air to air missiles is needed to keep the planes stealthy. In addition longer range for the airplanes is also needed in order to have a long range standoff distance for the carriers.

[@chaoticsworst]

I love the way you sneak in F-14 Tomcats every so often;-) One of my Fav.

[@davidjagan2794]

Great USA made fighter jet

[@kurtwagner350]

I know it’s stupid but I always wondered with the range component if it couldn’t be solved by a Star Wars hyperspace ring type solution. Attach a drop tank style jet booster to get you halfway, drop it and go the rest on your own power. Feels like a version of that could work

[@rgloria40]

Looks like it going to be up to the present Midshipmen. I think the A12 got very far into the detail design phase. They would need to understand Active Flow with DARPA x65 and completed R&D for F/A fix vortex generators (dynamic vortex generation) and to incorporate it. Nothing wrong repackage existing work...use citations.

Good compuer graphics.

[@accobb1553]

How many have been produced so far? Oh, nice video.

[@kevinmccarthy8746]

ZERO

[@Cryo_Cake]

none its only in the early stages of development, just like NGAD, FCAS and GCAP

[@ericb.4358]

Hmmm... the Navy moves ahead with its NGAD fighter but it appears that the Air Force has "paused" the development of their NGD fighter. However the Air Force has vastly upgraded the F-15 into the F-15 Eagle and is now upgrading many F-22 Raptors with better radar, networ comms, 360 deg. cameras and helmet visor information projection/control ability. Thus the Air Force will not ve entirely without cutting edge fighters. Hopefully the new thinner, lighter (more durable?) stealth coating can be applied to the older, high maintenance and perhaps less effective coating on the F-22. ->>> TheNavy already has a drone tanker which could be made stealthier so it can accompany fighters closer to target areas to give them more range - and be "attributable" if absolutely necessary.

Our adversaries should pay attention. Don’t mess with America.😅

[@Joe-b2n]

Canards are not stealthily .

[@kcsvantasticvoyages9729]

Wow

[@timothycunningham3983]

THESE ARE NOT RELIABLE DESIGNS. ARTIST RENDERING.

[@anthonychristofferson1535]

True

[@bitrage.]

Ngad, f/a-xx, why dont they focus on 1 double jet

[@alexanderbaker2744]

What do you think the F-35 JOINT STRIKE FIGHTER program was? Its good in theory, but the needs are different enough to not be efficient. That being said, there should be a initiate to share components from a logistics standpoint.

[@bitrage.]

@@alexanderbaker2744 f-35 aka "Fat Amy" is a single jet...

[@aaronellington5546]

The reason why we don’t focus on one particular aircraft is because we can walk and chew gum at the same time😮

[@bitrage.]

@@aaronellington5546 wow... absolute slammer!! I guess I forgot designing next gen fighter jets is as involved as chewing gum... BRILLIANT insight!!🤣🤦‍♂️

[@pacosantino1049]

the plane on your miniature has no shadow

Because it’s only a graphic and not a real picture.

Latest Chinese attack Drone flys 8 mach and equiped with hypersonic micro-missiles. US Government's Recent funding shown cutting cost on the New fighter program and instead putting more on modernizing the nukes.

[@i-on-u]

China is bankrupt!,…the country’s built with “ tofu-dreg” projects, it is doomed. Paper Tiger military just like its RED communist brothers, Russia and North Korea.

[@CusodtyajustNorights]

Fyi Navy nor some of the folks watching these videos We have. Nothing to do with what others may or may not have going on I'm not saying I agree because I don't agree with what and if they partake in that type of life I am not alright with that life style I do agree Sir.

[@AndrewSinclair-bk9ho]

Pointless , unless you have spares on board carriers , unlike the F35!

[@Kauthaji]

No matter who is elected: the Redskin or Trump The military might must continue.

[@AndyBonesSynthPro]

I hope they veer from the CG design. A duck isn't scary, only pointy things are scary

[@robertmanella528]

Looks like shit and we are broke!!! Cancel it now!!!

[@BruceConklin-js5rg]

Right now we have the F-35, a new generation fighter which is small, low performance, short range, low altitude.... And the F-22, not quite as up to date but a deterrent and a war-winner. But the latter is only available in small numbers. Obama's cancellation of the F-22 Raptor left open, deliberately, the possibility of a third World War.
