OREANDA-NEWS A promising sixth-generation F-47 fighter can be offered to Europe, which could direct it against Russia. The American edition of 19FortyFive writes about this.

The author of the publication, Isaac Seitz, notes that to date, none of the European projects of next-generation combat aircraft have produced tangible results. "The F-47 would be a great addition to many European air forces that are seeking to expand their aviation power to counter the threat from Russia," the observer says.

He also admits that "it's too early to talk about exporting a new fighter jet." "In addition to the fact that the aircraft is not physically ready, recent geopolitical trends are forcing Europe to reconsider its dependence on the United States, and many European countries are turning to other partners such as France to supply military aircraft," Seitz notes.

Earlier, Harrison Kass, a columnist for The National Interest magazine, said that the F-47 aircraft created by Boeing as part of the Next-Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program could become the last manned fighter of the US Air Force.

Also in March, The Aviationist reported that the President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced the American aerospace company Boeing, which is working on the F-47 aircraft, as the winner of the contract for the development of a sixth-generation fighter under the NGAD program for the US Air Force.
