Question

Refining AI-based operation of these objects is the goal of the ACE project, which partnered with Calspan to modify a Czechoslovakian “Albatros” trainer. Modern “fifth generation” designs of these objects (10[1])typically (10[1])eschew (10[1])canards in favor (10[1])of chines, (10[2])and are often equipped with LPIR. Sweden’s (10[1])Gripen (10[1])and France’s (10[2])Dassault (10[2])Rafale (10[2])(“da-SO ra-FALL”) compete in the (-5[1])market (10[1])for relatively low-cost examples (-5[1])of these objects. (10[1])In a NATO first, Polish President Andrzej (10[2])Duda transferred four of these objects built by MiG (10[1])to Ukraine (10[1]-5[2])in March 2023. (10[4]-5[2])Delays (-5[1])have plagued the procurement of these objects as part of the F-35 (-5[2])program, (10[2])which is spearheaded by (10[1])Northrop Grumman (10[1])and Lockheed Martin. For 10 points, name these military aircraft designed for (10[1])air-to-air combat, unlike (10[1])bombers. ■END■ (10[8]0[1])
