Not just better range. It will be like the Tomcat I suppose or other interceptors. Massive, fast, and larger payload both internally and externally so they can carry some truly massive missiles. Agile? Just enough but I think they'll go big on being fast and efficient first and use other methods like thrust vectoring for maneuverability. I'm not convinced that a gun is necessary TBH. Missile and computer technology has improved. When was the last air to air gun kill? 1980? A-10 against a helicopter? Oh and I'm sure they'll want a lot of extra power. Especially if lasers for defense are actually going to become a thing. EW warfare is one thing I cannot speculate on. This thing after all isn't just going to be a fighter unless they are going to use the F35Cs and Bs for strike missions.

@lindapowell117 People always forget about our submarines that are hopefully prowling somewhere close by. I know each group has at least one. The section of oceon from the Persian Gulf to Alaska/Russia must have at least a dozen at one time crawling with them and allies. Makes me wonder how many of our subs are on active duty patrolling at any given moment. And how many submarines of all nations are in the oceon playing hide and seek or actively pinging cruise boats haha. Has to be over 100.

@kdrapertrucker Who cares about speed if you do not have stealth. You would be blown out of the sky before you could even use any of your weapons. Anyway radar absorbing paint and ceramics have fixed this issue while increasing radar absorbing potential. They also have become much cheaper, and easier to maintain. That is always what kept newer jets from having more speed than older aircraft. I am looking forward to sixth gen aircraft personally. Especially this aircraft. The F 35 was such a mistake even though it is a really great aircraft. They should have at least just had two variants, and made an aircraft specifically for the USMC.
