Britain bets on Storm Fighter to form Europe’s first sixth-gen autonomous air wing
Britain's RAF unveiled Storm Fighter, an autonomous collaborative combat aircraft to fly with Typhoon, F-35 and the planned Tempest as part of a $6.6B defense modernization; the program revives loyal-wingman concepts from LANCA/Mosquito, includes carrier-demo work (Vanquish), and reflects broad industry interest (BAE, Boeing, others) with no finalized design or timeline yet.
