In this video, we’ll go through exciting details about America’s 6th Generation fighter by exploring its history. Stick to the end to know the exciting reality of this new jet. Russia’s response to this plan will also entertain you a lot. So, let’s get started.
The Historical Snapshot:
The US first introduced an operational 5th-generation fighter in 2005. The aircraft clearly stands out when considering the F-22 compared to its 4th generation predecessors. However, what made it the first of a new generation? Why is it not a more modern approach to the current fighters’ generation?
The aviation community itself is the origin of generational designations. Each generation is introduced with a subjective functions list that could have already been considered in some previous aircraft but become essential across the board for fighters of the coming generation.
Let’s see how the new capabilities were introduced to new generations.
1st Generation-Jet propulsion
2nd Generation: Range-finding radar, Swept wings, & infrared-guided missiles
3rd Generation: Pulse radar, Supersonic flight, and missiles allowed enemy engagement beyond visual range.
4th generation & beyond: Some degree of sensor fusion, look down/shoot down missiles, high levels of agility, pulse-doppler radar, reduced radar signature, fly-by-wire, and more.
4th-generation fighters could be further classified into sub-generations such as 4, 4+, & 4++. This modern approach boasts some 5th-generation capabilities, but not all.
These generations were undoubtedly strengthened to grab as much power as required. However, nothing can stop US technology from getting satisfied at a certain point. Moreover, there was a requirement for more extended ranges to dominate over the enemy successfully. So, the US began building the 6th Generation fighter Jet- almost secretly.
