America’s New Sixth-Generation Stealth Fighter Is A Decade Ahead of Schedule

Reuters National Interest: America’s New Stealth Fighter Is Years Ahead of Schedule 

New advances such as mixed-mode electronics will create a powerful plane unlike anything the world has ever seen. 

Very little or even next-to-nothing is known about the mysterious, yet perhaps quite promising prototype sixth-generation stealth fighter which has exploded onto the scene and taken off into the air years ahead of schedule. 

Yet there is little doubt that it may be faster, stealthier, more maneuverable and lethal than anything the world has ever seen.

WNU Editor: This sixth-generation fighter is still a decade or two away from being deployed. But it is a decade ahead of development, and it is all due to digital engineering .... a computer simulation process through which weapons performance, design specs and sensor fidelity and other variables of critical importance to modern warfare can be tested, analyzed, refined and accurately evaluated.
