There is a lot of hope for the new sixth generation warriors. General Charles Brown, Chief of Staff of the US Air Force, spoke about the innovations and what will be one of the main differences between the current fifth-generation aircraft.

According to the expert, in the case of the United States, the latest warplanes are created with an interesting piece of software. Yes, flight control software is completely separate from software that manages mission systems.

Brown said this would add “more flexibility” to the fighter, particularly allowing it to introduce new competitive technologies more quickly.

The fourth-generation F-16 fighter I flew had mission software and flight control software intertwined. So every time you upgraded your mission, you had to go back and make sure the plane was safe to fly.

It will be recalled that earlier information appeared on the Internet, since the sixth generation of the US fighter aircraft is a further development of the ideas that were officially laid out in the X-44 Multi-Axis Axle project.
