Critical announcements continue to come regarding the F-22 legend designed and produced by the United States. Here are all the details about the new project expected to replace the F-22 Raptors and the F-22 Raptor manufacturer.

The manufacturer for the NGAD program to replace the F-22 Raptor is finally being announced!

As the saying goes, “Every good thing comes to an end,” and we have some slightly sad news for our defense industry enthusiasts. In the aviation world, after the F-4, perhaps one of the planes considered legendary is the F-22 Raptor.

The development and initial mass production processes of this project were followed with great interest by many. Subsequently, an import ban was imposed by the United States, and this “free bird” was only seen in the inventory of the United States Air Force.

Today’s announcements indicate that the company responsible for the execution, development, and production processes of the Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) project, which will replace the F-22 Raptor, will be revealed very soon. With the F22 Raptor manufacturer Lockheed Martin being among the contenders, the competition has heated up.

With Northrop Grumman dropping out of the project tender, there is a lot of curiosity about who the new contractor will be. Currently, Lockheed Martin and Boeing are considered the two favorite companies for the NGAD project, which is defined as the 6th generation fighter jet.

The program schedule for the NGAD project remains a mystery, but it is reported that the tender will be completed by the end of the year, and the contractor company will be announced. Who do you think should be the manufacturer for the NGAD project to replace the F-22 Raptor? Don’t forget to share your thoughts in the comments section…
