Gen. Michael Moseley, speaking at AFA’s Air & Space Conference Wednesday, said that the Air Force’s top five acquisition priorities (the next-generation tanker, new search and rescue helicopter, space systems, the F-35, and the next-generation bomber) are “but a step in the right direction.” The Air Force’s top uniformed official said that worldwide requirements “demand that we purchase more C-130Js, the Joint Cargo Aircraft, [and] more and better medium and high altitude unmanned aerial vehicles,” among other things.
As with previous stealth aircraft unveilings, the Air Force’s imagery of the F-47 Next-Generation Air Dominance fighter has been doctored to keep adversaries guessing about its true shaping and design philosophy.
