Northrop Grumman has released images of the concept for its new stealth “superjet,” showing it capable of firing laser weapons.
The company refers to it as NG Air Dominance, but has not provided specifications.
There are expectations the jet will be capable of flying at supersonic speeds.
Sources also presume the aircraft will be equipped with laser weapons capable of tracking multiple targets.
It is believed advanced cooling systems will be used to disguise the laser systems.
The jet is scheduled to be deployed in 2030.
