Weapons Races - Jet Fighter


There will never be another manned jet fighter as powerful as the Lockheed F-22 Raptor. Its extraordinary capability is the result of a weapons race to evolve the perfect combat aircraft which began well before Frank Whittle invented the jet engine. This programme looks at the requirements such as speed, endurance, maneuverability, and fire power which pushed designers to explore the technological limits; the pilots who flew them; and examines how combat honed their mounts into ever-more deadly killing machines.
Apart from the undisputable 4 elements in building a superb air vehicle namely:
  1. Speed
  2. Endurance
  3. Maneuverability
  4. Fire Power
there occurs two further aspects in the coming vehicles that weren’t present in the planes of the WW2 namely
  1. Situational Awareness
  2. Invisibility ~Stealth


Enjoy…
