The Donald Trump administration announces a major contract award to Boeing for the production of a new fighter jet

Boeing has been awarded a contract by US President Donald Trump to develop and produce the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program, a new fighter jet that will replace the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor. The NGAD program involves the development of a crewed aircraft designed to operate alongside drones, with the goal of penetrating China's air defenses. The initial contract is worth an estimated $20 billion and marks a significant win for Boeing, with shares of the company rising 5% after the news.
The F-47 will be the most advanced, most capable, most lethal aircraft ever built. An experimental version of the plane has secretly been flying for almost 5 years and we're confident that it massively overpowers the capabilities of any other nation..
It's a beautiful number, F-47. It's something the likes of which nobody has seen before. In terms of all of the attributes of a fighter jet, there's never been anything even close to it, from speed to manoeuvrability to what it can have for payload.
Compared to the F-22, the F-47 will cost less and be more adaptable to future threats -- and we will have more of the F-47s in our inventory.
We're going to write the next generation of modern aerial warfare with this.
It sends a very direct, clear message to our allies that we're not going anywhere, and to our enemies that we can, we will be able to project power around the globe unimpeded for generations to come.
We've had the F-15. We've had F-16, the F-18, the F-22, the F-35. Now we have the F-47.
