Comments by "David Houseman" (@davidhouseman4328) on "Tempest: What the next-generation fighter could mean for UK air power" video.
@aflyingcowboy31 the UK, Japan and Italy clearly care, and given theres no current suggestion NGAD will be exported much of the world probably cares more about Tempest.

@aflyingcowboy31 So what you mean isn't who cares, it's "you" don't care because it's to far off time wise.

It may just be essentially a 5th gen jet, 5th+ maybe. In which case it will be more optimised for air to air and longer ranges than the F35. So still better than the F35 for its chosen role. But there has been time that is likely to improvements an 6th gen seems likely to be about about a networked system rather than a specific jet and that's the chance for it to shine

Lots if the F35 was built abroad, so for example it's called 15% is British built bit they aren't buying 15% so net the US might be importing

@alessiofe the US didn't ban the export of the F15. It's not air superiority in general, just individual decisions based on the aircraft.
