Jets are built for stealth, use internal weapons bays, fly with high maneuverability, have better sensors, and have the ability to sustain cruise at supersonic speeds.The F-22 and F-35 family developed by the US, and the J-20 made by China and the Su-57 developed by Russia.In 2009, Tirpak examined the possibility of what a, in part by speculating on new technologies it could incorporate, but also by defining what came before.
To unpack the jargon above, “stealth” is a set of technologies, from the coating of the plane to the shape it takes, that make it, especially with radar. Sensor fusion combines information from a plane’s sensors, like targeting cameras and radar, as well as other avionics, to create a fuller picture of the environment around the aircraft.
“What’s next-generation about CCA is that they will have more autonomy than the current UAVs in the Air Force inventory like Reaper. And the question is how much more autonomy will they actually have,” says Lee. “And I think what the Air Force is interested in is starting with having that manned fighter aircraft, whether it’s NGAD or something else, be able to provide inputs and certainly oversee the operations of the CCA.
