An early rendering of a proposed Boeing F/A-XX design. In April 2012, the Navy issued a formal request for information for the F/A-XX. It calls for an air superiority fighter with multi-role capabilities to initially complement and eventually supersede the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet and EA-18G Growler aircraft in the 2030s, while complementing the F-35C Lightning II and UCLASS unmanned aircraft ...
The NGAD originated from Defense Advanced Research Project Agency studies initiated in 2014 to explore concepts for air superiority systems of the 2030s for the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy. DARPA completed its Air Dominance Initiative study in March 2014 and based on the results, the Department of Defense acquisition chief Frank Kendall launched the Aerospace Innovation Initiative (AII) in ...
The Next-Generation Bomber (NGB; unofficially called the 2018 Bomber or B-3 Bomber) was a program to develop a new medium bomber for the United States Air Force.The NGB was initially projected to enter service around 2018 as a stealthy, subsonic, medium-range, medium payload bomber to supplement and possibly—to a limited degree—replace the U.S. Air Force's aging bomber fleet (B-52 ...

From about 2004 to 2011, [4] [5] U.S. military planners used various "Tier systems" to designate the various elements in an overall plan for integrated operations. [6] The Tiers do not refer to specific models of aircraft, but rather roles the aircraft would fill.
US Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall is aiming for an initial fleet of 1,000 CCAs. [68] As elements of a crewed-uncrewed team, two CCAs could be teamed with an NGAD or F-35, say two for each of the 200 NGAD platforms, [ 69 ] and two for each of the 300 F-35s, in order to work out concepts to integrate them into the service, [ 63 ] but the full ...
