Good video. I've actually been thinking about how large carrier aircraft along with AWACs aircraft and some serious escorts (F-22s ) could move into an area and release swarms of remotely piloted drones. A C-17 could have a dozen operators setup at stations controlling the squadron dropped from the specially designed cargo area. These wouldn't even need radar - just a couple of IR missiles and a couple of AMRAAMs in internal bays and a gun. The AWACS could guide and lock them onto targets. The operators could set them to full autonomous mode once they're in theater to avoid coms giving away their positions. Others would be larger and set up for strike missions while afore mentioned take out any air threat. A third type could be even smaller drones with HARMs and possibly a suicide HARM mission built in once their missiles are expended. I'm babbling, but the possibilities are staggering - I won't even get into the idea of space planes since you could theoretically have dozens just sitting in orbit and ready to be "dropped" into action when needed.

I live next to a major Unites States Air Force base with a lot of traffic. I've been watching F-22 Raptors fly over my house for twenty years now. It occured to me while watching this video that still to this day, the majority of people on the planet have never actually seen an F-22 Raptor in person, so I thought I'd share something cool that I've observed about it over the years. Simply put, the aircraft always looks futuristic. It always has, from the first time I saw one in the air in the early 2000s, to the birds above my home today. I can't think of anything else I've ever seen on this planet that has this unique quality. How can something look so futuristic for so long when you see it all the time? I don't know, but that's the F-22. It's amazing, and it's been cool growing up with them overhead. I don't know what is going to come next, but I do know it is going to inspire future generations in the same way the Raptor has inspired me. I can't wait to see one flying by.

What the hell do you need guns and artillery for ? You have a locust level swarm of hunter-killer drones with a payload sufficient to kill one human target. Oh, you're hiding in a trench ?

I had always thought the way 6th gen would work was something like a F-15EX accompanying NGAD at a distance to ferry a load of munitions since 5th gen is kind of showing that as an area where it kind of lacks, this idea basically takes that to 11. And I don't know if the US version is going to be the same as the Aussie version but 'absorbing fire' is on the checklist for the RAAF. One of the good things is a lot of the groundwork for loyal wingman has already been laid with the Aussie program.

The US Navy already has the first ever unmanned drone that was used as a tanker for a manned US jet and the first unmanned jet drone to land on an aircraft carrier at sea. Both were done autonomously without US pilots operating them. I think the Loyal Wingman concept and NGAD are far more advanced than we know. The Air Force is also already testing all kinds of AI tech on an experimental F-16 that can simulate all kinds of other jets. I think they are teaching the drone to operate and/or fight.

There is a trade off between stealth and maneuverability when it comes to the shape of a plane, any plane that leans into maneuverability would be less stealthy. Unless they come up with a way to change the plane's shape in mid flight (which would admittedly be a crazy level of high-tech) I think they'd probably try to come up with a new way to target enemies from a distance, and possibly make it capable of limited space flight.

Ukraine used small consumer drones effectively in the beginning of the war. These have become a lot less effective as the both sides learn how to deal with them as this conflict has dragged on.

for clarification, as when this was written it was probably correct however is not now, the ‘Future Combat Air System’ (FCAS) is a partnership of Spain-France-Germany, and the the mitsubishi F-X merged and Partnered with Britain and Italy to form the Sixth Gen ‘Global Combat Air Programme’ (GCAP). Europe’s main powers are split over 2 different sixth gen fighter programmes.

The confusion is likely coming from the original British 6th gen program, which is still the overall name for the RAF's future fighter strategy, being called Future Combat Air System (FCAS) as well. As a result, there have been two completely separate programs running in parallel with the exact same name. To avoid this confusion, the Franco-German-Spanish programme is often referred to by it's French acronym - SCAF. Not that that is necessarily needed anymore since the Anglo-Italian-Japanese programme becoming GCAP.

People who think the 6th gen fighter jet would look like the simulated/cartoon here, 0:27, haven't seriously followed the evolution if fighter jets. They're into console games and other cartoon CGIs: There is a reason why ALL fighter jets ---- from the first one (the Nazi/German Messerschmitt Me-262)..... to the current, high-end 4th and 5th gen kinds like F-22, F-35, Su-35/Su-57, Typhoon/Eurofighter, Rafale, Super Hornet, Changdo J-20, Shenyang FC-31, etc. ---- have the TAIL-END designs they do: #1: it's either two vertical stabilizers like the SR-71, F-14, F-15, Super Hornet, the Su-35/Su-57, J-20, FC-31, F-22, F-35... Or #2: those with a slightly larger, single vertical stabilizer like the Rafael, the Typhoon/Eurofighter, the F-16, the Gripen, etc. Each second that goes by, when a fighter jet is flying say, at Mach 2 or so, ~30,000ft in altitude ... the air molecules passing through EACH SQUARE INCH of the area of its VERTICAL STABILIZER(S)... is roughly 40,000 psi. If you don't have a need for such a BIG, ROBUST STABILIZING PHYSICAL STRUCTURE, you are NOT going to put it/them there. The REASON fighter jets have THAT CONTRAPTION is not for their beautiful aesthetics; the reason is that fighter jets have an ENDLESS NEED to make very fast, very big/dangerous "instantaneous" SHARP TURNS. Our aircraft are not ANTI-GRAVITY machines ---- like those the US Navy recorded in some of their instruments over the years, from San Diego's Navy training areas off the coast of Coronado/La Jolla to the East Coast, on the Atlantic front. When pilots need to make drastic ANGLE CHANGES, they need those giant & powerful VERTICAL STABILIZERS to physically maneuver those TENS OF THOUSANDS OF POUNDS of air molecules that are passing through EACH SQUARE INCH of those giant structures (even the tilted ones like those on the F-22, Super Hornet, F-35, etc are still VERY VERTICAL). But these CGI cartoon ones shown to purport to be what the US 6th gen fighter jet may look like.... they are more in line with GLIDER AIRCRAFT like the B-2, up coming B-21, and taleless drones. Even tailess drones and "flying wings" like the B-2/B-21 can be MADE to fly very fast. But they are NOT going to be able to make instantaneous, sharp/high-angle turns. That is just the LAW OF PHYSICS and ENGINEERING we are currently stuck with, as a species.... We again are not Aliens from Andromeda, with anti-gravitational aircraft.... (..... For those interested but who haven't thought it through, because they confuse CGIs for real fighter jets...... the ENERGY needed to fit "puffing" air-ducts ---- controlled by, say, super computers --- to "fight" against those 40,000+ PSI force.... so you could pull very high G's... would be beyond what any fighter jet could muster.... So that is NOT the direction we are going with....) Again, flying a fighter jet at Mach 2, around 25,000 to 30,000ft and pulling 5 to 9-G's on it...... is NOT the same thing as docking a Space Shuttle or Elon's Space X... at the International Space Station... with tiny "puffing" jet streams, to slowly maneuver the space-craft to be align with doorways at the Space Station... IN OTHER WORDS, you either have the F-22/F-35/Rafale/Typhoon/Su-35/Su-57/SR-71/FC-31 design.... OR.... you have something like a greatly MODIFIED YF-23 design.... OR you have the B-2/B-21 design... and this third option is a GLIDER. Whether it goes really fast or really slow, it a GLIDER CANNOT make sharp angle turns! Again, all these Cartoon CGIs on these RU-vid videos are GLIDERS, not real usable fighter jets that could pull erratic 9-G's and be able to go on... If you flew the up-coming & smaller & faster B-21 at, say, Mach 1 and you tried to make a sharp angle turn --- it's computer WOULDNT ALLOW IT but let's say you put in on a "manual mode" and tried it ---- it WILL GO DOWN instantly! Winged bombers --- designed without vertical stabilizing contraptions --- are NOT ENGINEERED for sharp angle turns (again, whether you fly it at 345MPH or 900MPH; you should NOT try to make sharp angle turns).... BTW, one of the reasons why the Pentagon picked the MORE TRADITIONAL YF-22 over the more "futuristic" DIAMOND-SHAPED (parallelogram) YF-23 prototype... was indeed due to its more futuristic and "unproven" wing and tail designs. With the YF-23 also being some 6 feet longer, and with so many more "unproven" designs (such as the cooling technologies to disperse hot air coming out of the YF-23's exhausts).... the YF-23 would have cost, on a per unit basis, TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars more. And one of the REASONS why the units of the F-22 dropped form 500 units to 250 unites to finally 189 at the end.... was that it was costing between $300M to $500 per unit... NOT the "Oh, it's only $130M" as some silly folks have been saying.... If the F-22 had only "cost just $130M" --- or roughly the cost of a current F-35B ---- the US Pentagon would have allowed the US Air Force to order up to 250 or more units... before the program was terminated. But between $300M - $500M a unit, or roughly 1/4 of the prize of the B-2, even the US couldn't have afforded to buy & maintain more than 150 to 180 or so units...

Actually NGAD is ideal for dogfighting as bullets are much cheaper than missles and not limited by G’s (assuming its a manless drone) which means it can outturn and outmaneuver any manned jet and essentially kill a $100 million dollar enemy aircraft with as little as 5-10 strategically placed cannon shells at minimal cost. What we see with 5th gen like the F22 is that after they use up the few missiles they have they can only dogfight or run away. Assuming the enemy can increasingly avoid those via tech and experience it leads them back to dogfighting to win. As with Ukraine and Russia rapidly burning through millions of dollars of weapons being blocked by the opposition… it is actually the cost effective drones that are winning the war more than the $100 million dollar aircraft.

The 6th Gen will Not be a dogfighting machine. America has been moving away from the dogfight ever since the F22. New Fighter jet will most likely keep up with Stealth tecnology, I cant imagine a fighter built around stealth mindset to include dog fighting. Also many speculate that the 6th gen is going to be able to hyper sonic at high altitudes (80k ft) Which will require a diffrent type of frame that would not support dogfighting role. So it makes more sense for a Extremely High flying, Hyper Sonic, Stealth Jet with long ranger hyper sonic missle capablilites. Today's midset is to Kill before they even knew you were there.

My impression of the ngad program is to deliver an evolving platform that will support a wide variety of weapons systems. The platform will network the battlefield from a protected position that will aid against detection: a high and distant position that will outpace the range of other launched weapons. Expect each platform to support a constantly modified drone chassis and new chassis that will support stock components. Expect these drones to operate with Ai advanced tactics that would be impossible for a human body to survive within. Expect that the main command platform to operate as a command point that will carry and launch specific drone configurations. These ngad platforms will launch from within the mainland of the United States. The range of these platforms will be assisted to their destination. The destination will be just outside of s target's range of detection and or retaliation or defensive measures. Drones will launch from here either from the ngad command platform or from other assisting Stealth capable drones. The ngad platform will gather and distribute intel in real time. Platforms and drones will be in constant evolution. The iteration of each evolution will be dictated by the geopolitics and financial efficiencies required. The NGAD program I expect to be not of a singular aircraft design, but rather the implementation of a new philosophy that will accelerate the bleeding edge of aviation combat to be fielded much more quickly. Example, coordination of the manufacturing process to correct for errors within a single iteration of design. Think czinger 21C meets the army's future combat system meets industrialization preparedness. Amd all aviation research programs can contribute on all levels to the evolution of the ngad Program. Think like game developers or open source design. So each craft during a non-war period may be more of a test bed for technolog and software. And each iteration may consist of one individual platform. While during war these platforms can be slapped together using stocked parts and factories around the country to produce dozens or more of the necessary craft within a month or less. I.e: Closely coordinated production on demand to meet demands.

Intelligence gathering, close air support, bomb and air to air weapons delivery, loitering ammunition, electronic warfare, drones with varying roles, missles. Where there is a synergy in the development and later maintenance of the different planes, by using the same engines, materials, electronics, construction processes etc. Maybe even have the planes convertible from one primary role to another.

I'd like to suggest you look into the Inch Pipelines, Big Inch and Little Big Inch, of World War 2. Before the war, petroleum from Texas went to the Northeastern US via oil tankers. When America entered the war, German u-boats launched Operation Drumbeat along the American east coast, attacking merchant shipping and Allied warships. To secure oil supplies to the Northeast, Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes called for a pipeline project to transport petroleum by a more secure interior route immune to German interception. Built over the course of two years, Big Inch and Little Big Inch were built over 1,254 and 1,475 miles respectively, each with 35 pumping stations along their routes, from Texas to New Jersey, the longest, biggest and heaviest project of its type then undertaken. It required 16,000 people and 658,000 tons of materials and was built in coordination between the US government and a consortium of the largest American oil companies, becoming a major point of US government wartime propaganda.

@@nickb2049 Ya there was an encounter as reported and the J20 performed far better than the F35 until the Americans were shocked. The J20 will have different upgrades and the latest version will put the F35 to shame. Dont believe ? Just wait for time when both meet. I dont see how F35 is even a match for the J20 with so many features inferior to the J20 . Believe me, F35 is useless when faced vs the J20 . Shorter range, Much slower shorter range missiles. 1 pilot only. 1000 still unfinished problems... Peer to peer .. with other planes , data communications , etc. Maybe you tell me ONE AREA F35 has that can beat the J20 as J20 can not only take on F35 head on , but can take on the AWACs far behind , and with second pilots will be able to control so many things leaving the pilot of fly ...

No, that is the future estimated lifetime cost for the F-35 program, which goes until 2070. Don't be misleading. Also this is a replacement for the raptor.

@kalik8354 Ok, granted, we've technically "only" spent half a trillion on it so far. Which means we'll still be spending a further 1.2 trillion (assuming the rest of the program doesn't go 80 percent over budget.) Plus, we'll no doubt be simultaneously spending hundreds of billions more at least on its successor. Where does our arms race against ourselves stop?

I'm sure this aircraft has been around for a while, and I'm sure there are already enough built to form a squadron. When the government comes out with all of this, it's equipment that's already been around for years. Not to mention, many contractors have stated that we are five life times ahead of where we are ready at.

If they're going to put all of the sensors in CCA's, then why are the 6th Gen jets going to cost over $300mill? Sounds like the CCA's will be expensive too. The Kratos said they're making theirs at $6 million, but said they believe they can get it down to $2 million each. I doubt that includes the expensive sensors. I'm so ready to see how this all plays out. Hurry up!

The f22 is over 40 years old. And the navy has different needs than the airforce. Namely, they need a lot more range than the airforce
@bluemarlin8138
@bluemarlin8138 9 месяцев назад
The F-22 prototype first flew in 1997 (26 years ago) and entered service in 2006 (17 years ago). Correct about the Navy having different needs. Their plane needs to be able to take off from and land on carriers, stand up to salt water, and needs more range. The YF-23 actually would have been a very good naval fighter if the airframe could be made to handle the landings. But the F-22 was the right choice for the USAF.

Who knows what stage of development that they are in. Also the F22 raptor is being used as a test bed for a lot of sixth gen technologies making it now having some prototypes that are 5.5 gen.

The wingman won't be limited by the physical restraints of a manned plane. G forces won't be a factor as far as body stress on a pilot and it won't need expensive and very heavy life support systems for pilots and ejection modules are a huge expense. They also weigh a ton. So much weight and space will be saved. The miniaturization of electronics now will barely be a facture .
