Beşinci nesil savaş uçakları Nedir?
A fifth-generation fighter is a jet fighter aircraft classification which includes major technologies developed during the first part of the 21st century. As of 2026, these are the most advanced fighters in operation. The characteristics of a fifth-generation fighter are not universally agreed upon, and not every fifth-generation type necessarily has them all; however, they typically include stealth, low-probability-of-intercept radar (LPIR), agile airframes with supercruise performance, advanced avionics features, and highly integrated computer systems capable of networking with other elements within the battlespace for situational awareness and C3 (command, control and communications) capabilities.
As of December 2025, the combat-ready fifth-generation fighters are the Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor, which entered service with the United States Air Force (USAF) in December 2005; the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II, which entered service with the United States Marine Corps (USMC) in July 2015; the Chengdu J-20, which entered service with the People’s Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) in March 2017; the Shenyang J-35, which entered service with the PLAAF and People’s Liberation Army Navy Air Force (PLANAF) in September 2025; and the Sukhoi Su-57, which entered service with the Russian Air Force (VVS) in December 2020. Other national and international projects are in various stages of development.
