How many stealth planes are there




















Singapore tries to normalize military training schedule after pandemic disruption Efforts include an integrated sense-and-strike exercise in Idaho that saw the debut of an improved artificial intelligence-enabled C2 system.

This is done to ensure that craft remains fully mission capable against evolving worldwide threats. In June , Northrop Grumman was awarded a contract to develop an EHF satellite communications capability and computer architecture upgrade for the B-2 bomber.

Flight testing with the new systems was completed in July US Air Force and Northrop Grumman Corporation completed the system design review of the new software and computing architecture during July This new architecture provides high-speed data handling environment required to implement future B-2capabilities such as an EHF satellite communications system, and also provides B-2 the ability to destroy moving targets.

The cockpit accommodates two crew members. It is equipped with a colour, nine-tube, electronic flight instrumentation system EFIS , which displays flight, engine and sensor data and avionics systems and weapons status. The pilot can choose to activate the appropriate selection of flight and mission equipment for take-off mode, go-to-war mode and landing mode by using a simple three-way switch.

The aircraft carries all its weapons internally and is fitted with two separate weapons bays in the centre of the aircraft. The B-2 stealth bomber has the capacity to carry up to 40,lb of weapons, including conventional and nuclear weapons, precision-guided munitions, gravity bombs and a range of maritime weapons. Each weapons bay is equipped with a rotary launcher and two bomb-rack assemblies. In tests, the B-2 successfully released B and B nuclear and mk84 conventional bombs from the rotary rocket launcher, and mk82 and CBU conventional weapons from the bomb racks.

The B is an earth-penetrating nuclear bomb for use against deeply buried and hardened targets. The B83 is a strategic free-fall nuclear bomb.

Northrop Grumman is the B-2 prime contractor leading an industry team that works with the Air Force to modernize the B The revolutionary approach to bring the B-2 Spirit to life is as unique as the technologies that resulted from it.

A prototype is planned for , the first flight tests for and, if all goes well, mass production could begin as early as The Mitsubishi F-X would serve as a replacement for around 90 Mitsubishi Heavy Industries F-2 jet fighters, which are slated to be retired around the mids.

It is planned to include stealth technology, though given that the fighter is still in the early planning stages, information is obviously preliminary and limited. Nicknamed the Godzilla, there are no official specifications for the F-X yet, but it is speculated that it may eventually have X-2 capabilities and be able to carry more missiles than the F Currently under production by Mikoyan, this is another example of a stealth fighter which is still in the planning stages.

When completed, it is thought that it would be either a five-plus- or sixth-generation fighter jet. Either way, it is planned to have stealth capabilities. However, early rumors have the stealth jet fighter possibly able to reach Mach 4. With its first flight taking place in , this model is still under development for the Iranian Air Force.

That said, it has been under development for more than a decade, with its radar-absorbing technology being reported at least as early as It is now in the prototype phase.

Initially, Iran received help from Russia in its development, and that influence can be seen in features such as an FD ejector seat, which is Russian in origin.

The Shafaq measures 35 feet 7 inches long, features a Klimov RD turbofan engine, and is expected to be a subsonic fighter jet and eventually carry Shahbaz, Sattar, or Fatter missiles. The first prototype is expected in , the first test flight anticipated for , is supposed to be ready for regular manufacturing by , and finally may enter use by
