New US Military Jet Promises Greater Range, Integration with Drones, and Unprecedented Air Superiority. F-47 Is Part of the NGAD Program and Is Expected to Be Operational by the End of the Decade.

The new F-47 sixth-generation fighter has been officially unveiled as the next combat aircraft for the United States Air Force, designed to replace the iconic F-22 Raptor. With more advanced stealth technology, greater range, and integration with unmanned systems, the model will be manufactured by Boeing as part of the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program.

The revelation was made by President Donald Trump in March 2025, during a speech broadcast by the American press. According to Reuters sources, Boeing secured a contract estimated at US$ 20 billion, surpassing the traditional Lockheed Martin, responsible for the F-22 and F-35 models.

New Generation Stealth Technologies and Sensor Fusion

The complete specifications are still classified, but initial data reveals advancements such as:

Stealth invisible to next-generation radars
Extended range for operations in the Pacific and Asia
Real-time sensor fusion for the pilot
Capability to control and coordinate armed drones

As published by The Sun on March 24, 2025, the aircraft’s design includes smoother lines, no vertical tail, and internal weapon compartments, maximizing the capability for radar detection evasion.

Strategic Impact and Expected Operational Entry

The F-47 integrates US efforts to maintain aerial supremacy in light of military advancements from China and Russia. According to AS portal, the jet is expected to be delivered to the Air Force between 2028 and 2030, entering service with the first squadrons at Edwards Air Force Base in California.

The Pentagon’s goal is to have at least 150 operational units by 2032, reinforcing the doctrine of technological deterrence in military aviation.
