F-47 Jet: Trump Hails 'Most Destructive Aircraft'; Features to Stun China, Russia

• Donald Trump declared the F-47, a successor to the WWII P-47, as the 'most devastating aircraft ever', equipped with modern laser weapons and secret stealth technology.
• The F-47 exists as a prototype, with a secret model flying for 5 years; the production model, a sixth-generation fighter jet, is expected for its first official flight in 2028.
• Historically, the P-47 Thunderbolt was a robust WWII fighter, renamed F-47 in 1948, known for its heavy weaponry including eight .50-caliber machine guns and bomb/rocket capacity.
• Its destructive power stemmed from endurance features like an air-cooled radial engine, heavy armor, and the ability to sustain damage while returning safely.
• Future F-47 concepts envision 6th generation stealth aircraft with laser weapons, AI-driven pilotless capabilities, and hypersonic speeds (5 times the speed of sound).

Why It Matters: The F-47, a formidable sixth-generation fighter jet, promises to redefine aerial warfare with advanced stealth and weaponry.
