Keep in mind, 7th gen may be intelligent drones - lower cost but lethal. We have to address the ridiculous cost of weapons before the 7 gen mortgaged the future of the next generation.
The US will no doubt lead on the 5.5 to 6 Gen leap, USAF's latest statements indicate they will use existing equipment, and technology to make the leap, the Ford and the F-35 have illustrated far to well what happens when you "overreach" your equipment and abilities.
You end up spending so much more if you are developing each new technology to its limit? instead we need to integrate existing "airframe technology with the cutting edge avionics, while at the same time simplifying the whole process!
