Fighter F-35

The first sixth generation fighter was tested in the USA, and it turned out to be worse than the Russian Su-35

The USA reported on the tests of the first sixth generation fighter, but it has too limited maneuverability.

Despite the loud name of the project of the sixth generation fighter "Air domination of the next generation" and even the tests of a new combat aircraft for the US Air Force, it turned out that the fighter is simply not ready to fight even with the Russian Su-35 - it simply does not have any maneuverability due to the probable miscalculation when creating a design.

“We have already built and launched a full-scale flight demonstration in the real world, and we have broken all records in this business. We are ready to start building next generation aircraft like never before. "Will Roper, United States Air Force Purchasing Director, said.

Nevertheless, experts draw attention to the fact that the tail section of the fighter as such is absent, which significantly reduces the maneuverability of this combat aircraft.

“The problem of maneuverability of existing fighters in service with the United States lies primarily in the lack of modern engines with a controlled thrust vector. Without a tail section, the latest American combat aircraft is completely useless, because in the event of close combat, it simply cannot evade enemy attacks. ", - the expert marks.

It should be noted that the design of the newest combat aircraft may be presented as early as next year.
