USN calls for new fighter - they never learn

According to Flight this week the USN are looking for a new fighter for post 2030

They want persistent air defence capability, air to air refueling, tactical recce, surveillance, target acquisition, airborne electronic attack - can be manned, optionally manned, unmanned

has to fly faster, fly further and linger longer than current designs with a greater payload

Once again reaching for the moon looking to spend zillions before it's cancelled
