A Hypersonic, Space-Traveling, Laser-Firing 7th-Gen Stealth Fighter by 2050?
7th-generation manned hypersonic flight, space travel, generative AI and new, unprecedented dimensions to stealth?

As the secretive Next Gen Air Dominance 6th-gen aircraft takes flight, and the Air Force fast-tracks supportive drones called Combat Collaborative Aircraft, few might be inclined to consider the prospect of a 7th-generation fighter.
 
Seem beyond the scope of current thinking, yet its likely someone at the Pentagon is thinking about this and working on concepts of operation to support an entirely new generation of stealth fighters to emerge beyond the 2050s..  Sure enough, there are some key technological barriers yet to be broken, something which invites speculation regarding the realm of the possible 7th-generation. Could it manage manned hypersonic flight, space travel, generative AI and new, unprecedented dimensions to stealth?

It would be nothing short of spectacular to envision a manned hypersonic stealthy jet capable of transiting beyond and within the earth’s atmosphere to conduct secret attacks, perform otherwise impossible surveillance missions or even engage in space warfare should that become necessary

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Gee, only 25 years away.  By that time, it will already be outdated. :reaper:

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
