You mean the 1950s. The 1990s US aerospace industry was in the midst of mass cancellations and mergers post-Cold War. Whereas in the 50s you got all sorts of designs, like the F7U, F5D, Century-series, and a littany of light and heavy bombers.At the rate they're going, China feels a lot like the USAF of the 90s.

Nah, in my opinion the X-planes we got during the 80s-90s were way cooler and more exotic and much more mature too.You mean the 1950s.
