SEC DEF Hegseth announces new generation war fighter aircraft: F-47

Doesn't doing this pretty much cancel out all of the money that they allegedly had to save by killing all of those government jobs?

And then some? Maybe?

Well they'll just have to find more ways to save more, and then some. Like they say, "Billions for defense, but not one cent for tribute", or something to that effect.

Which bloated government agencies would you recommend cutting next?

The military budget is not oversized....just full of waste, fraud and abuse like so much of the government. Weapons nobody will use, expensive DEI programs that are ineffectual. (Military has only recognizes green, Grey, and Blue ethnicities)
Then the whole transgender BS programs.
"Don't ask, don't tell" was the least obnoxious program for accepting homosexuals in the military.

The number one killer of our servicemen is suicide. Not enemy combatants.

The women who get in but want out get pregnant from some dumb GI....it's a "less than honorable" but it works out eventually for the women. (It doesn't for the guy they name)

Special Forces teams are still a priority and so are Navy. You can get a LOT of money in the Navy as well as just about any job you want which will turn into a career after you get out. Scraping barnacles is not a duty post anymore.
 
Yet another commie who hates the US military chimes in.

Care to say that about me? And if it were named after the Orange Cheeto, those would be only two of the optional names.

US President Donald Trump announced that Boeing has been awarded the contract to produce the US Air Force’s next-generation fighter jet, the F-47. The aircraft, classified as a sixth-generation fighter, is expected to be the most advanced fighter jet ever developed.
~Snip~
Advanced capabilities and strategic impact The F-47 incorporates advanced stealth technology, artificial intelligence systems, and autonomous command and control capabilities. It is expected to achieve supersonic speeds without the use of an afterburner, allowing for extended and quieter operations in contested airspace. The aircraft will also feature high-precision weapons, hypersonic missile capabilities, aerial refueling, and next-generation electronic warfare systems.

F-47: -- WHAT WE KNOW AND WHAT'S STILL TO SHOW

The Boeing F-47 is set to integrate a host of new technologies, including semi-autonomous drones, new propulsion systems, innovative sensors, and the cutting-edge engine adaptive engine.
The NGAD program has been a topic of much discussion within the defense community, especially after the Air Force initially paused the project to reassess its costs and requirements. However, following an internal review and consultations with a panel of experts, it was confirmed that the need for such a fighter remains urgent, particularly as the U.S. faces evolving threats from adversaries like China and Russia.

Commentary:
According to the latest released information. The F-47 has been flying for the last 5 years. More than likely out of Area 51.
The centerpiece of the program is a manned 6th-generation fighter, but with rising costs (expected to be in the hundreds of millions apiece) and rapid advancements in autonomous technologies, the Air Force has paused to reassess its approach.
The results will reshape the program, shifting focus from a manned 6th generation fighter jet to a more cost-effective and technologically advanced system of systems.

Actually I love the military.

Served for 20 years.

It's adulterous, tax cheat, charity stealing, porn star humping, sexual abusing, bankrupt prone, university scamming, election interfering, convicted felon in the Oval Office I dislike.

NATO nomenclature is to name Russian fighters with names starting with "F" Foxbat, Fullback, Flanker, etc. Felon just sounds particularly awesome and appropriate.
Thank you. I know. Just joking.
 
Hegseth...Trump`s DUI hire.
