Kinda looks like what would happen if the A-12 "flying dorito" and the YF-23 mated. Fugly but still I like it.
Not much info is available online. I know it takes years maybe even a couple decades before we see a finalized concept take shape but this is fascinating because after the F-15E, and the Super Hornet Boeing is dead in the fighter world. The F/A-XX makes the F-35C look redundant and inferior due the single engine and all the limitations a single engine airframe include. Besides the Navy has an understandable bias towards twin engine designs. How long do we have to wait for a real A-6 replacement?
I believe the best tri-service fighter was the F-4, This looks like its true successor a ( Phantom III ) and I wish this was the JSF.
