🇺🇸 LOCKHEED’S NEW STEALTH DRONE BUILT TO DO EVERYTHING (EXCEPT LOSE) Skunk Works just dropped Vectis, a lethal, runway-loving stealth drone designed to flex in any airspace - U.S or allied. It’s big (Group 5), customizable, and built to outlast, outfight, and out-adapt whatever the future battlefield throws at it. Prototype parts are already in the shop, with first flight set for late 2027. It works with your F-22, your F-35, or whatever 6th-gen beast you’ve got in the hangar. And yes, it’s runway-bound, but rugged enough for the field and smart enough to train with the crew. Just don’t expect supersonic - Lockheed says speed isn’t everything when you’re already invisible.

Lockheed Martin's Advanced Development Programs (ADP), also known more colloquially as Skunk Works, has unveiled a new, high-end stealth drone for the U.S. Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) Program, dubbed Vectis. According to TWZ, Vectis is designed to be highly adaptable to an operator’s requirements, whether they be in the United States or in other partner countries around the world, with the first variant expected to take flight by 2028. “Meet Vectis, a Group 5, survivable, lethal, and reusable, Collaborative Combat Aircraft that embodies not only our pedigree in [crewed] fighter aircraft, autonomy, and uncrewed systems, but [that] is also enabled by that Agile Drone Framework,” O.J. Sanchez, Lockheed Martin Vice President and General Manager of Skunk Works, told The War Zone and other media outlets this past week. “Vectis will provide U.S. and allied warfighters with range, endurance, and multi-mission flexibility, including air-to-air, air-to-surface, and ISR [Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance].”

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 America’s B-21 and F-47 are moving faster than expected! The U.S. Air Force says its B-21 Raider stealth bomber and F-47 sixth generation fighter programs are ahead of schedule. The first operational B-21 is expected to arrive at Ellsworth Air Force Base in 2027, with the Air Force ultimately targeting a fleet of 100 aircraft. The F-47 is scheduled for its first flight in 2028, with plans to acquire 185 jets to replace the F-22 as America’s premier air superiority fighter. The F-47 is also expected to operate alongside Collaborative Combat Aircraft, giving it the ability to work with autonomous “loyal wingman” drones. With both programs accelerating, America is rapidly building a new generation of stealth bombers, sixth generation fighters and autonomous combat aircraft. The next era of U.S. airpower is arriving faster than expected.

We asked AJ Piplica how long it takes to make a plane. "Aircraft development has slowed down linearly over time." "From 1945-75, it took around 5 years. In 1975, Kelly Johnson retired from Skunk Works (Lockheed Martin)." "Since then, most programs have taken 15+ years. The F-35 took 30 years to get made."

🇮🇱 Israel just signed a $34M deal to give its F-35 stealth fighters external fuel tanks. The contract with Elbit subsidiary Cyclone will extend the F-35 "Adir's" operational range, reduce dependence on aerial refueling, and improve flexibility on long-range missions. No F-35 operator across the dozen-plus nations flying the jet has done this before. The catch: external tanks may compromise stealth capabilities. Testing will determine the trade-off.

⭕🇬🇷 Greek Defense Minister Nikos Dendias says Greece is building “one of the strongest air forces on the planet,” with 200 ultra modern fighter jets planned as the country prepares to receive its first Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II stealth fighters by late 2027 or early 2028. The Hellenic Air Force currently operates F-16 Fighting Falcon and Dassault Rafale jets, alongside older Dassault Mirage 2000 aircraft.

‼️🇺🇲 A U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor pilot has for the first time directly controlled a General Atomics MQ-20 Avenger unmanned combat drone from the fighter’s cockpit during a live flight, the companies involved said on Monday. The demonstration, conducted over the Nevada Test and Training Range, saw the pilot issue real-time commands to the jet-powered stealth drone via a tablet interface, using open-architecture software and secure datalinks developed by Lockheed Martin and L3Harris. General Atomics described the test as a milestone in “crewed-uncrewed teaming,” a priority for the U.S. Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft program, which aims to pair fifth-generation fighters with low-cost autonomous wingmen.

🇺🇲🇨🇳🇹🇼BIG; U.S. Deploys More F-22 Stealth Fighters to CHINA’s Doorstep Next to TAIWAN Strait Hotspot The United States Air Force has deployed additional F-22 Raptor fifth generation fighter aircraft to Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan, just days after the deployment of F-22s to Basa Air Base in the Philippines for joint exercises with local forces simulating operations against Chinese forces. Kadena Air Base is a particularly sensitive facility due to ongoing tensions with China in the Taiwan Strait, with the Japanese island providing one of the closest locations for a potential response by Washington and Tokyo to contingencies in the area. The F-22 was developed for high intensity combat, and designed for demanding penetrating air superiority missions . NOTE; Old footage of F-22 Raptor activating its cloaking device.

Lockheed Martin has introduced the Lamprey Multi-Mission Autonomous Undersea Vehicle, a new unmanned system designed for naval operations beneath the ocean. The underwater vehicle can attach to ships for recharging, stay hidden on the seabed to gather intelligence, and operate for long periods without human crews. It can also launch torpedoes, decoys, and even airborne drones for reconnaissance and strike missions.

BREAKING: China’s next generation stealth fighters are already flying — and may outpace the U.S. 🇨🇳 The Pentagon confirms that China’s first two sixth-generation fighter prototypes, the Chengdu J-36 and Shenyang J-50, are undergoing intensive flight tests with tailless stealth designs. Multiple prototypes have flown since late 2024, with rapid upgrades continuing through 2025. These developments could put China ahead of the U.S. Boeing F-47, now scheduled for its first flight in 2028. Analysts warn China is accelerating its next generation airpower, signaling a potential shift in global air dominance.

🚨🇺🇸 The U.S. has deployed 12 F-15 fighter jets to the Middle East, supported by 4 aerial refueling aircraft. The key question: Why send the F-15 instead of the F-16, F-22, or F-35? The answer lies in payload and firepower. 🔹 F-15 (F-15E / F-15EX) • Maximum weapons payload: ~23,000–29,500 lbs (externally carried) 🔹 F-35 Lightning II • Internal payload (stealth mode): ~5,700 lbs • Maximum total payload (with external stores): ~18,000 lbs (External carriage reduces stealth) This deployment highlights a preference for heavy strike capability over stealth, signaling that the situation may be entering a more dangerous phase.
