Washington:
America is going to build a sixth generation fighter aircraft. It will be known as F-47. Trump has entrusted the responsibility of making it to Boeing. He announced that a big deal has been made for the F-47 fighter aircraft of the Air Force with Boeing. The purpose of this deal is to replace F-22 Stealth War Plane. These aircraft have been serving for nearly 2 decades. Now new more advance aircraft will be able to work with without crew drones. Let us know that the toned down Wordon of F-47 will also be available to the associate countries.
Trump told that this fighter plane will have such characteristics, which would never have seen before the world. From the speed of F-47 to the mobility and payload, no plane will be around it.
Trump told the media at the Oval Office, “After a tough competition among some top aerospace companies in the US, the Air Force is going to deal with Boeing for the next generation air dominance (NGAD) platform.”
Trump told F-47 fighter plane specialty
The F-47, F-22 will replace the raptor aircraft, which was built in the 1980s. Explain that it has stealth technology, high level of mobility and supercruze or ability to maintain supersonic flight without afterburner. Trump said that the price of this deal is not being disclosed due to security reasons. In praise of F-47 fighter plane, Trump said that no other aircraft in the world will be around it .. F-47 title has been chosen by the generals. This is a great number.
This deal of American is no less than a boon for Boeing. Boeing faced a very difficult time last year. When the employees of the company went on strike. It also had to face security problems. The NGAD effort was stopped in 2024 due to cost concerns.

Trump said that the F-47 fighter plane has been secretly flying for the last 5 months as testing. He expressed confidence that this is better than other countries. This new fighter jet will be included in the US Air Force by 2030.
NGAD airframe price estimate
The Congress budget office had estimated in 2018 that the NGAD airframe may cost up to $ 300 million per airframe, which is much higher than many other aircraft present in American inventory.
A senior Air Force officer had said earlier this month that the service did a study after the ban last year. In which it concluded that not only in the past, not only in the present but also in the future, the air superiority matters.
“No one is better than NGAD”
Major General Joseph Kunkel said in Colorado, “We came to know from this study that we considered many different options.” But there is no better option than NGAD to achieve air superiority in a more competitive environment.
