The Chinese are advancing on 6th-generation fighters, but I have serious doubts about whether this is truly the right path. Recently, the Turkish company Baykar flew two combat drones that operate in perfect synchronization, guided from a ground base. They executed coordinated maneuvers autonomously and are already capable of conducting BVR (Beyond Visual Range) engagements. The Kızılelma became the first drone to achieve an autonomous kill with an air-to-air missile guided by its own AESA radar. This level of Turkish progress, combined with the kill web integration that Chinese drones are demonstrating, isn’t it a strong indication that manned 6th-generation fighters might be an extraordinarily expensive fantasy? I’ll go further: some drones are already reaching speeds above Mach 3.5 - more than double those of the leading current manned fighters. I’m talking about drones capable of high-speed coordinated operations, fully autonomous, with integrated and shared weapon systems, flying at altitudes far higher than conventional fighters, and employing systems similar to Aegis. How much longer until these drones take off in large swarms, equipped with ultra-modern sensors controlled by AI and armed with long-range air-to-air missiles? How could a human pilot, even at the height of adrenaline, make faster and more accurate decisions, involving multiple scenarios and factors, than an AI commanding a pack of smaller, more agile drones operating at different altitudes? We are entering the real competition between man and machine. Even if a pilot in a 6th-generation fighter has control over slave drones and an entire Aegis-like kill web, what is the point of having him there if everything can be done autonomously, more safely, more cheaply, and in far greater numbers? Some argue that the human pilot offers advantages in unpredictable scenarios where today’s AI still fails, and I agree. But I’m not talking about current AI: I’m talking about the AI of 2030–2040, far more advanced than anything we know today. Geran drones equipped with air-to-air missiles prove that air combat drones can be extremely low-cost, while the Turkish tests show, in a far more sophisticated way, that drones designed for air-to-air missions are evolving much faster than 6th-generation aircraft, whose development and production costs are exorbitant. When we put together the Geran, the Kızılelma, and the drone kill web integration the Chinese are achieving, the question arises: is the future really manned 6th-generation fighters, or much cheaper drones produced in greater numbers, better protected, and more capable? Wouldn’t it be smarter to invest in well-equipped autonomous 6th-generation drones rather than treating them merely as wingmen? It seems that keeping a human pilot on board has more to do with ethical principles and preserving our role than with genuine operational necessity. And how would humanity react to the constant killing of human beings by AI-guided drones? Drones will be cheaper to develop, easier to produce, and possibly more agile than conventional fighters, even 6th-generation ones. In cost-benefit terms, the price of a single 6th-generation fighter could buy dozens of equivalent or even superior drones. This would save hundreds of billions of dollars and could put whoever adopts the strategy a step ahead. The Chinese, by the way, are very well positioned in this race, with HALE drones already armed with air-to-air missiles and integrated into an extensive kill web, which I will describe in detail soon.

Baykar Chairman and CTO Selçuk Bayraktar compares AI-powered combat drones to the computer that defeated Garry Kasparov, arguing that the comparison between human pilots and autonomous aircraft is becoming obsolete. “There is no human in this aircraft. It can do everything a manned aircraft does — and more,” he says, emphasizing that autonomous systems are cheaper and eliminate the years of training and human risk associated with fighter pilots: “The human is truly the most expensive element.”

🇺🇸🇮🇶 U.S. AIR FORCE TANKER SPOTTED FLYING OVER THE PERSIAN GULF A U.S. Air Force KC 135 Stratotanker was spotted flying out of Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar and moving through Persian Gulf and Iraqi airspace, according to public flight tracking data. A KC 135 is a refueling aircraft used to keep fighter jets and bombers in the air longer, not a combat plane itself. The flight quickly and began watching its route closely. On its own, a tanker flight is not unusual. These missions happen regularly. What caught attention is the timing. Source: Visioner

First Drone vs. Manned Fighter Combat? On December 8, 2025, the Ukrainian Air Force confirmed the loss of a Su-27 fighter jet piloted by Lieutenant Colonel Yevhenii Ivanov, who was killed during a combat mission in the eastern direction. Yesterday, December 17, one Mi-24 was downed in same circumstances. Russian sources allege the aircraft was shot down, but Ukrainian statements describe the circumstances as under investigation, with no official confirmation of the cause. There are unverified Russian claims linking it to a modified Geran-2 drone equipped with an R-60 missile. Ukrainian intelligence has confirmed the existence of Geran-2 variants armed with R-60 air-to-air missiles, designed primarily to counter aircraft or helicopters approaching to intercept drone swarms. If independently verified, such an engagement could represent a significant milestone in drone-vs-manned aircraft combat. This development aligns with broader trends i mentioned in my previous article on Chinese high-altitude drones conducting air-to-air target acquisition from positions well above potential threats. Elon Musk has indeed argued that the future of warfare lies with unmanned aircraft, stating that manned fighter jets are becoming obsolete in the drone era and predicting a shift toward autonomous or remotely controlled systems. But i believe that it’s something to the next two decades. Sixth-generation aircraft concepts often emphasize manned platforms controlling swarms of drones (loyal wingmen), but the question pushes further: How will manned fighters compete against high-altitude unmanned systems operating 10–15 km above their service ceiling and potentially launching air-air hypersonic missiles? In January I will post an article on China's development of layered high-altitude drone systems for ISTAR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition, and Reconnaissance), one optimized for aerial threats and another for naval targets. Recent Chinese programs, like high-altitude stealth drones, recharge stations and mothership concepts capable of deploying swarms, suggest active progress in this direction.

Of all the places, you chose to take your protest to a Nigerian Air Force Base, throwing buzzwords about budgets. Are these guys aware the air force is by far the most expensive arm of the military to run yet receives less funding than the army and navy? A fighter jet cost millions per flight hour to operate, not counting the cost of fueling and maintaining highly complex aircraft and avionics. The cost or a single precision guided munition used by these aircaft ranges from $50,000 to over $150,000. Nigerian Air Force's entire budget, when converted to USD is not enough to procure 12 modern fighter jets. Despite its limited resources, the Nigerian Air Force has been critical in Nigeria's fight against terrorism.

ELON: FUTURE WARS WILL BE FOUGHT BY DRONES AND AI “The biggest effect [of warfare's transformation] by far is AI and drones. The current war in Ukraine is very much a drone war already. If there's a major power war, it's very much going to be a drone war. It's going to be drones and AI. I do worry about the existential risk of AI, which is that if you employ AI and drones, do you go down this path where eventually you get to Terminator? We should try to avoid that and minimize the Terminator risk. [But] when you're making military drones, you are making Terminators. [In fact] I think you'll somewhat be forced into giving the drone localized AI, because if the AI is far away, it can't control as well as a localized AI. Meaning [the robot is] an autonomous killing machine. You give it the okay in a particular arena, and it just goes.” Source: West Point Military Academy, August 2024

Elon Musk: The age of human-piloted fighter aircraft is coming to an end. “I'm not sure there's a lot of opportunity for fighter pilots because I think if you've got a drone swarm coming at you, the pilot's a liability in the fighter plane, to be honest. If you compare a drone versus a fighter plane, how easy is it to make a drone? It's an order of magnitude, maybe, maybe 100 times easier to make the drone. And you can afford to sacrifice the drones, whereas you don't want to sacrifice the pilots. So my guess is that actually the age of human-piloted fighter aircraft is coming to an end.” Interview at West Point Military Academy, August 16, 2024

🇺🇸 The U.S. Air Force is changing how air wars will be fought. And it’s about teaming advanced fighter jets with autonomous combat drones. The YFQ-44A “Fury” is part of that shift. A semi autonomous drone designed to fly alongside pilots, carry missiles, scout ahead, and even act as a decoy in contested airspace. What’s different is how it’s being built. Instead of years of testing before deployment, operators are involved from day one. Pilots are shaping how the system works in real time, speeding up development and adapting it to actual combat needs. The goal is scale and flexibility. Hundreds, potentially thousands of these drones working with a single fighter, extending range, increasing firepower, and taking on the highest risk missions. This is the new model: a network of machines overwhelming it. Army Recognition, Anduril Industries
