Fighter jets have remained a traditional & core pivot of the fighting capabilities of Air Forces globally with their significant role & capabilities for conducting aerial combat, interdiction, penetration of enemy air defenses, ground attack and air dominance/superiority missions & roles. The radical shift in traditional world order towards multi-polarity; marked by the resurgence of great power competition and escalating geopolitical tensions over the recent years; has been driving a surge in defense spending across most parts of the world over the recent years. The recapitalization of legacy fighter jet aircraft programs, thus, has become a key priority across nations with the initiation of a bevy of next generation aircraft programs for rapid build-up of capacity & military capabilities.

In term of capabilities, the 5th generation aircraft programs are already proving to be favorites to replace the 4/4.5 generation aircrafts with the Lockheed Martin’s F-35 Lightning II stealth fighter jet program spearheading the charge & the generational shift. The 6th generation aircraft programs are also on the anvil geared towards the future with their potential EIS slated for late 2030s. Continental Europe is committing itself to the development of two such programs, namely, the Franco-German-Spanish consortium led FCAS program and the Tempest program being spearheaded by the triad of Great Britain-Italy-Sweden. In the U.S., the NGAD program collectively represents the efforts being made towards the development of 6th generation combat aircraft to be powered by the upcoming Adaptive Cycle Engine (ACE) program.
