Goodbye F-22! US 6th Generation Fighter Jet Is Coming
Each NGAD fighter will cost hundreds of millions of dollars and the overall NGAD program could cost over $100 billion.
For context, America’s current most lethal fighter — the F-22 Raptor — costs a whopping $350 million, the most of any fighter in history. And the F-22 Raptor is what the NGAD fighter is slated to replace when it enters service, although that move may be a bit controversial and we’ll get to why in a minute. For now, it’s important to note that the total of 200 NGAD combat jets is roughly equivalent to the size of the Air Force's current F-22 Raptor fleet – hinting that the entire F-22 fleet will be replaced. The F-22 is reportedly involved in the NGAD program as some form of testbed upon which the NGAD fighter would be born.
