World's Most Advanced Combat Aircraft
- Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit
Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit is a stealth weapon-powered warplane used for bombing. The plane, made of the thermoplastic material, was worn by the US Air Force. Northrop Grumman is the prime contractor for the US Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bomber.
The aircraft was first introduced to the public in 1988 and flew premier, July 17, 1989 with a still active status. The aircraft is not capable of flying fast and easily destroyed if seen. Therefore, Northrop Grumman has developed a new radar absorbent coating to conserve the characteristics of stealth B-2 drastically, in order to reduce maintenance time. The new material, known as a high-frequency alternative material (AHFM), is sprayed by four independently controlled robots.
The mission of this aircraft is to destroy the base or military base of the enemy, without visible radar. Excess B-2 is able to penetrate a sophisticated air defense (radar) shield. The aircraft is capable of attacking all targets from altitudes of up to 50,000 feet or about 16,656 kilometers from sea level, with a range of more than 6,000 nm, without unrefueled fuel and more than 10,000 nm with one refueling, giving the ability to fly to any point in the world in a few hours.

- F-22 Raptor
The F-22 Raptor is a heavyweight fighter equivalent to the F-15 Strike Eagle, but the F-22 has some capabilities not possessed by the F-15 Strike Eagle. The first thing that makes the F-22 Raptor more sophisticated than the F-15 Strike Eagle is a stealth feature that allows the F-22 Raptor fighter is not visible from enemy radar, so it can attack the enemy undetected.
Stealth feature on the fighter is achieved thanks to the design and absorbing material of radar waves on the fuselage that makes the opponent radar signal absorbed and emitted irregularly so that the opponent does not detect the existence of this aircraft. The absorption rate of these radar signals is often called Radar cross Section (RCS) where the RCS value of this fighter is around 0.001m2, which is much smaller than any fighter in the world today. This is what makes this F-22 worth mentioning as the most advanced fighter plane in the world today.
- C-17 Globemaster III
C-17 Globemaster III is a US military transport aircraft manufactured by Boeing Integrated Defense Systems and operated by the United States Air Force, the United Kingdom Air Force and the Australian Air Force. This aircraft has also been selected by the Canadian military and planned to be deployed in 2007.NATO also plans to order this type of transport aircraft.
The C-17 takes the same name from two of its predecessor's heavy carrier C-74 Globemaster and C-124 Globemaster II. C-17 Globemaster III is a military transport aircraft developed by the United States military (USAF) in conjunction with the Boeing Integrated Defense System, beginning in 1980 from the early 1990s with McDonnell Douglas (now McDonnell Douglas has joined Boeing) and operated by the United States Air Force, the United Kingdom Air Force and the Australian Air Force.
- E-2D Advanced Hawkeye
E-2D Advanced Hawkeye is the most advanced type of aircraft because it has a new radar system so it can conduct surveillance and surveillance of the enemy carefully and accurately. Advanced E-2D Hawkeye which took the first flight in 2007 is complete with satellite communications capabilities and its ability to refuel air. E-2D Advanced Hawkeye became a mainstay for the United States Navy in its various operations, especially in the Middle East.
- F-35 Lightning II
The F-35 Lightning II or Joint Strike Fighter is the fifth generation fighter, the joint production of Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and BAE Systems. This super-sophisticated aircraft has the capability of "Stealth", will not be seen on the radar opponent. The amount of weaponry and ammunition he could carry was more stout than previous generations, such as the F-16 and F-18.
The F-35 Lightning II is a sophisticated aircraft capable of circumventing radar opponents. This aircraft is the result of the development of the X-35 aircraft in the Joint Strike Fighter program. This aircraft is a single-seat, single-engine, single-use, single-function, single-use, air-to-air combat (dogfight) battle, close-air support, surface attack and tactical bombardment. The F-35 Lightning JSF looks like a modern jet fighter, but what makes this particular jet is software and intelligence gathering capabilities. Wikipedia source
- Sukhoi Su-27

The Sukhoi Su-27 is a fighter aircraft originally manufactured by the Soviet Union, and designed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau. The aircraft is planned to become the main rival of a new generation of US fighter aircraft that is F-14 Tomcat, F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and F / A-18 Hornet. Su-27 has a long range, heavy weaponry, and high agility. This aircraft is often referred to as the result of competition between Sukhoi with Mikoyan-Gurevich, because Su-27 and MiG-29 shaped similar. This is a misnomer, because the Su-27 is designed as a long-range air superiority interceptor and fighter aircraft, while the MiG-29 is designed to fill the role of a close-range fighter.
