F-47 Design Progressing, First Flight On Track

Search the X planes and Aera 51, and Tech demonstrators flying since 2019 according to USAF chief and we believe on USAF chief

Oh. So the F-47 is not in a confidential state. It has always been public. So some of the talk in this thread about "the US will keep it secret, implying that the F-47 has already been completed" is just hype. So the F-47 has not been built yet, and it hasn't even been finalized?

its still not flown in public since 2019, search the Aera 51 it restricted airspace almost contain whole state of Navada which has least pupation centers in that restricted airspace, stop trolling kid

Bro, don't be like this. It's not worth your irritability and emotional outburst. Okay. Whatever you say is right.

And USAF has history to reveal their top-secret project long time after they were introduce to the public A-12 (SR-71) revealed after 20 years in USAF service, F-117 was introduced in early 80s but revealed by USAF in early 90s and same goes to B-2, NGAD or F-47 project is not a public project kid

With all due respect, that's complete b*******

You don't know what the US has done behind the scenes.

Just like the F-22 raptor is more than two decades old. Yet still the the best air superiority stealth fighter on the face of the Earth

So I wonder, what is the USA currently working on now that will dominate the skies for decades

People are underestimating the Usa, they are a superpower, who controls the world economy, trade, have bases all over the world and military/defence/economic allies. But we also cannot deny China is catching up in one v one military terms.

Boeings NGAD prototype has been flying for 7-8 years. Final production F-47 has not flown yet.

F-47 is “hyped up” because the US has a long history of developing the most advanced aircraft in the world and F-47 is the successor to the F-22.

It may not seems but USA has advance underground development facilities. They may already have next generation fighter/drone being tested.

If some of ya's don't calm down you might have some time on your hands to work on your anger issues.

Let's not ignore the fact that just about every country that develops aircraft is now doing so with the aid of computer simulation. I can't think of an airframe in the last 30 years or so that did not have simulation as part of the design and development.

To your point, you are correct. Many people have no idea what is going on behind the scenes. As @Oscar pointed out, the F-117 was flying for years before it was made public. And now all of a sudden, the Chinese are the new leaders in advanced aircraft development because they have a few test aircraft flying.

Laughable.
