The Boeing F/A-XX is an American supersonic, carrier-capable, multirole sixth-generation fighter aircraft currently under development. It is the centrepiece of the US Navy's Next Generation Air Dominance family of systems for fielding a sixth-generation strike fighter and is planned to replace the service's F/A-18E/F Super Hornet starting in the 2030s. As of 2026 most of the technical information about the aircraft is still classified. Boeing was awarded the development contract on 29 September 2026, beating Northrop Grumman and securing prime contractor status for both of America's sixth-generation fighters, together with the F-47 for the US Air Force. The contract is valued at more than 20 billion dollars for the full-scale development phase and procures multiple test aircraft for ground, airworthiness, systems and weapons integration testing.
