Could it make sense for a fighter?

• Vecr 4y ago
  Possibly, depending if you think it needs to dogfight or not. The F35 actually can dogfight pretty much fine, due to the semi lifting body (after they fixed the software, old articles, pre 2016 really, are outdated), but blended wing is not the same thing. If you see the stuff the US is doing with NGAD concepts that pretty much only do beyond visual range and don't have guns it could be fine. Some of them are more fighter/stand off weapon delivery "bombers" like the B52 are becoming now.
