    I thought the F-35 was the next generation fighter, but the article only mentions this as a replacement for the F-22.

      they’re both 5th generation

      f-22 is basically built to be purely an air superiority fighter, and it’s still probably better at that than the f-35

      the ngad is the replacement for the f-22 because it’s built to the same air superiority brief

    Good, cancel it like you make NASA cancel most things that go over budget. Like the goddamn rover that won’t even go to the moon now because of Corpo delays, but the rocket will still fly with a fucking fake weight… They got their money anyway…
