REVEALED: F-35 Problems KILLED Lockheed Martin’s 6th Gen Fighter Jet Dreams!Hello aviation enthusiast! Welcome back to Skyward Fighter — the channel where air dominance takes flight! Today, we’re diving into a game-changing shift in the defense industry. Lockheed Martin, the titan behind legendary jets like the F-22 and F-35, just got left in the dust. Boeing has officially been awarded the contract for America’s first sixth-generation fighter jet — the F-47. This isn’t just another plane; it’s set to become the crown jewel of the U.S. Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance, or NGAD, program. This system is more than just a jet — it’s a “system of systems,” incorporating cutting-edge unmanned aerial systems. And that’s not all — the F-47 is also deeply integrated into the Collaborative Combat Aircraft program, which aims to bring together manned and unmanned platforms in battlefield harmony. So, why did Boeing get the green light while Lockheed Martin was pushed aside?. When Giants Fall.
