The next generation of fighter aircraft is set to bring advanced weapons, increased stealth, deep AI integration and the ability to work alongside unmanned combat aircraft, according to a defence expert.
Dr James Bosbotinis said the leap in capabilities will be significant enough to qualify the aircraft as sixth-generation, with current advanced fighters like the F-35 Lightning and F-22 Raptor defined as the fifth-generation, with those like the Typhoon and Rafale being fourth.
Sixth-gen aircraft will involve the use of new technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning and complex collaborations with uncrewed platforms – known as manned/unmanned teaming or loyal wingmen.
