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