Military fans, cheer up your military soul! Today we're going to talk about those jet fighters that fly in the blue sky. The topic focused on China, the United States, and Russia, the three major aircraft powers. Now we are in the race for the development of the sixth generation fighter, which is like a high-tech arms contest. However, in this race, Russia seems to have some signs of falling behind.
It is reported that Russia may not have its own sixth-generation fighter until 2050. In contrast, China and the United States will already appear around 2030. Yes, you heard it right, it is that in 2023, the sixth generation fighters of China and the United States are expected to appear!
The current situation is not good, Russia can be said to be in a hurry to "fall behind" on the fighter track. What's going on? Don't worry, let's unravel the mystery of this fighter together.
First, let's take a look at the Su-57, Russia's fifth-generation fighter. In terms of volume, it is a fight with China's J-20 and the United States' F-22, but in terms of key stealth capabilities, it is always complained that it is inferior to others. Looking at the production again, the Russian side has just exceeded 10 aircraft, and it is expected that 76 aircraft will be delivered to the troops by 2028. This production capacity is simply life-threatening.
In contrast, China's J-20 and the United States' F-22 have long been installed in large quantities. In this case, how can you compare with others? Russia is obviously a little "powerless" on the track of fifth-generation aircraft.
What's even more dramatic is that the time for the birth of the sixth-generation aircraft that Russia has set for itself is simply a bit "tolerant" and unbelievable. Looking at China and the United States, they have long entered the substantive stage, while Russia is still staying in the first stage of setting fighters. This sixth-generation aircraft has not even started pre-research, isn't it a bit too "slow and half a beat"?
The situation in Russia is really "you fight for me". China and the United States will have sixth-generation aircraft around 2030, and it is possible that Russia will not be able to come up with them until closer to 2050. Isn't that a full 20 years away? Looking further back, around 2050, perhaps the seventh-generation fighter jets of China and the United States will soon be unveiled.
Brothers and sisters, what's going on? Is Russia falling behind? Could it be that something is wrong with the technology, or is it something wrong? If this is the case, then Russia will lose its aura in the field of military industry and fall off the altar.
In short, this fighter topic is really explosive! The three major powers are competing for me, for more advanced military science and technology, and for the blue sky to soar more freely, they are playing with their lives. What do you think? Are you looking forward to the Three Kingdoms showing off cooler fighters? Let's wait and see! Fly, Fighter Wings!
