The Air Force announced Boeing was given the contract for the latest air superiority fighter known as the F-47. This is a little surprising given that Boeing has had several challenges in building aircraft recently.

This new fighter will have many technological enhancements, such as improved sensors, stealth, and the ability to operate with unmanned wingmen. This will mean it is ahead of any near-peer adversaries that it might have to go up against. Additionally, it should be cheaper to build than many other fighters on the market today.
