Скачать или смотреть South Korea's Secret Plan for a 6th-Gen Fighter — Too Late?

South Korea has announced ambitions to develop a true sixth-generation fighter known as KF-XX — but while Seoul is still defining concepts, the United States, Japan, and China are already flying prototypes.

In this video, we break down what actually defines a sixth-generation fighter, how South Korea’s KF-21 fits into that picture, and why delays in engines, AI, autonomy, and networking could leave Seoul strategically dependent in the coming decades. This is not about ambition — it’s about timing, technology, and the narrowing window of airpower dominance in East Asia.
