During a major Oval Office address on Friday, President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth introduced a new sixth-generation fighter jet costing $20 billion. In an unbelievable move, Trump named the jet after himself — the F47 — emphasizing his place in history as President of the United States.
“The F47 will be the most advanced, capable, and lethal aircraft ever built. We’re confident that it overpowers the capabilities of any nation,” he said before adding: “47 is a lovely number, isn’t it.”
Old fashioned, unreliable, can’t get off the ground…
And they released a concept study, too:
I actually do not care. Don’t get distracted, people!
And they gonna sell it to which other countries?
More on news tonight… A new F-47 has evaded capture for a second time this week by shooting bone spurs and safety doors…
The world news said it wasn’t for Trumps name I thought. They said it was for the year the Air Force started. An Air Force officer or someone high up got to choose and they chose the number. Trump just likes it because he’s a narcissist.
With Boeing showing a gross lack of quality and poor engineering in every project recently, them building a trump-named fighter makes a twisted sort of sense. I suppose it will just limp to the target area and than explode itself, for some astronomical amount of money. As usual lately, Putin will be very pleased.
- It only flies to Greenland.
- Gold interior with marble gauges.
- The flight computer rambles on about someone trying to get inside when no one is around.
- Seats smell very faintly of pee
- On an unrelated note, the dashcam says “made in the USSR” for some reason
- It’s not a bomber, technically, but it does bomb a lot
- but don’t use that mode deliberately, because the ballistic system gets very confused sometimes and targets golf courses instead
- …I can’t think of any more lame jokes, I’ve not had my morning covfefe
Have you had your covfefe by now?
So it will be an overly expensive, bloated, but ultimately ineffective jet that will become known for its much higher rate of friendly fire incidents than any other jet in history.
Also it will look ugly and have oddly small wings.
A 6-gen fueling system where it will be powered by praises alone and a suction system to eliminate waste.
I think Boeing escaped the law in the end? So yeah. Your prediction looks accurate to me.
It also has remote access capabilities used exclusively by Putin, but people seem totally fine with that part because the jet was promised to only be used to hurt the right people.

Don’t forget the weird livery that is oddly orange and seemingly missing around all of the ports. Oh and it’s fat.
F-15 - Eagle
F-16 - Fighting Falcon
F-35 - Lightening II
F-47 - Krasnov
These names are just getting worse with each new jet
F-16 is semi-officially known as the Viper these days.
F-35’s name is borrowed from the original (P-38) Lightning, arguably the best twin-engine long-range interceptor/patrol fighter made in the WW2 era.
Who fucking knows what they’ll try to call the new one irl, but I bet it’s something obnoxious and stupid
The P-38 was more of a Fighter-Escort than an interceptor. The P-51 is the most widely accepted best fighter interceptor of WW2.
The P-38 was absolutely extremely versatile, but as for an interceptor, the Mustang was better all around as a fighter and interceptor. Faster, longer range, more agile, better armed for air-to-air combat, and lower stall speed.
The P-38s would escort bombers on the first leg and hand over to P-51s, over an active combat zone, because the P-51 was so superior of a fighter interceptor.
the f-47 “Self Immolating Corporate-gloryhole” or “SICG” for short.
the role of the lightning changed with the introduction of the P-51 since the mustang was such a high performance long range bird that it remained relevant even as a jet far longer than any other converted prop to jet design. early in the war the lightning was almost exclusively used as an interceptor given its high top speeds but lower maneuverability. however, it also changed the way interceptor strategy was conceived forever. for example, the other famous interceptor of the war, the spitfire, was a pure dogfighter. it had a high top speed, good climbing performance, low wing loading for maneuverability, and no range. meanwhile the lighting was good for strafing enemy fighters before they ever had a chance to engage by just being insanely fast compared to the birds it was up against.
again though, it has everything to do with that fighters in WW2 were becoming obsolete at an astounding rate as manufacturing became more advanced as the war progressed. a plane introduced in one role at the start of its service might be relegated into another role within a year or two because operational realities shifted so much. i think there’s no greater example of this than the Mitsubishi Zero. it started the war as an air supremacy fighter and ended its service as a guided bomb whose control module was a human being.
anyway. i’m rambling. by far the most interesting designs to me were the ones with long service lives. the p-38 and the p-51 are particularly interesting in that they both demonstrate that the united states was heavily focused on operational supremacy with their hardware designs. both were designed to operate at long ranges unsupported without sacrificing combat performance
“The clown car”
Regardless of whatever the official moniker is, I’m greatly looking forward to whatever unofficial name the pilots and enlisted come up with.
Wasn’t the f35 the FatAmy? (Don’t flame me; please! I’m just repeating what a service buddy told me. She’s the dick, if anyone; not me!)
lol yep, Fat Amy is the 35’s service nickname. So called because she’s a chonker, really not a great dogfighter, and isn’t that fast - in fact, the 35 is the first air-combat-focused plane procured by the DoD in a long while that isn’t area ruled.
Is that “piss yellow” by any chance?

Maybe the car took a B vitamin.
Apparently it’s going to be made by Boeing? It will go down in history for sure.
Hey, he just said most lethal aircraft. He did not specify friend or foe.
The F47 will be the most advanced, capable, and lethal aircraft ever built
It sure will be
Time to reinforce your roofs everyone! Watch out for falling debris.
It will go down
nice one.
beat me to it.
The details of the plane remain secret, with only a portion of the prototype shown in a photo displayed to reporters.
Come on War Thunder, do you magic and expose the F-47 Orange.
F47 Agent Orange…
The Fuck-47?
Fascist-47
This fucker is wildly attempting any/all paths to find a way to leave an indelible historical mark of himself…
Guess “Lyingist Liar First Felon Mafia Level Attempt at a President and Killer of US Democracy” isn’t working for him…
He’s already got an indelible place in history all right. And nothing he manages to accomplish from now till his death will be sufficient to erase that lasting legacy.
🤡 🤡 🖕 🖕
He’s the Captain Sparrow of Presidents, can’t spell infamous without famous.
