We need to be suspicious when articles like this come out. Plane manufacturers have skin in the game and clearly would like to build a new manned jet. But at some point fighter assets will likely be unmanned, flown by people on the ground. The advent of hypersonic missiles could make manned fighter jets obsolete.

We don’t need the best plane.

We need the most powerful manufacturing industry in the world.....like we did in ww2 with the sherman tank.

Now we have a mecican manufacturing industry, if that.

Look at russia....can’t make enough drones to stomp out a tiny por nonfighting country.

That is us.
