Thanks for watching everyone! I meant to say that this was built to 28% scale of a possible fighter aircraft.

Great vid. So refreshing to see someone host their own aviation videos and use their own voice. No robot diction. Hats off to you sir! Subscribed.

The X-36 is probably my favorite aircraft at the USAF museum, because it contradicts everything else that you see before it by being tiny

Sidenote:
A couple of years ago there was a pictures leaked during transport of a design mounted on a test stand for radar testing rumored to be the NGAD. This design looked wild, but what many don't know is that the mock up is mounted upside down on the tower.

If you compare these it looks almost identical, albeit a bit more blended and missing canards, to the design of this.

Fascinating presentation re the Boeing X36 Paul - great commentary and video.

I advise anyone who can visit this museum does, also the Henry Ford museum north in Detroit. My father took me to dayton when i was a child, he has passed and i brought my son there. Be it military, aircraft or space craft the place is a goldmine for anyone interested.

You're on the internet ... so clearly the X36 successor is designed to be flown by cats. 😼

Funny if they had added a 28 % scale gun to this. Normal US fighters use 20 mm today, so that would mean a 5.56 mm automatic rifle, like an M16. :D

They've working on all kinds of things for decades, including "Hypersonics". The new fighter could be anything. Even Aviation Weekly doesn't know what it is. 😜

Really interesting that one and what the 6th gen will look like, but, I think you make some valid points 👍

Very interesting video, my friend! 👍🏻🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸👍🏻 Greatly enjoyed your coverage. One can only imagine the amazing aircraft that have never made it into the light of day.

definitely expecting it to look something between an X-44 and X-36

Looks very sleek, and I think we can all be pretty sure in assuming, that this has spawned several successors and follow on models and programs, something like this is most certainly already flying.

One of the reasons the X36 was rejected was due to the canards affecting its stealth characteristics. So I very seriously doubt that the U.S. will employ them especially seeing how everyone seems to think the 6th gen won’t focus much on high maneuverability and speed to beyond visual range combat. Which I think will ultimately end up becoming a big mistake just like the removal of guns on the F4. A radar system can eventually be built that will eliminate the advantage of stealth and will result in visual range combat and/or situations when you have a lot of aircraft coming at you from different directions.
