SEE IT: China stuns with maiden flight of sixth-generation aircraft
China appeared to unveil it's newest sixth-generation fighter aircraft after social media video and photos showed the tailless aircraft soaring above.
Video and photos from social media showed the previously unseen aircraft conducting a daytime test flight, alongside a two-seat Chengdu J-20S fighter, which served as a chase plane.
The NGAD fighter jet is intended to replace the F-22 Raptor, a fifth-generation stealth combat aircraft that has been in service with the U.S. Air Force since the early 2000s.
Fifth generation aircraft incorporated stealth technology, with the sixth generation aircraft promising further advancements.
