US President Donald Trump said that the United States is considering the possibility of creating a new model of fighter jets, the F—55, which will be an improved version of the currently used F-35 aircraft. The head of state announced this at a meeting of business leaders in Doha.

"We are also considering creating an improved version of the F-35, I think we will call it the F-55," Trump said.

He noted that the main difference of the new fighter will be the use of two engines. The president added that he likes airplanes with two engines.

On May 6, the Chief of Staff of the US Air Force, David Alvin, announced that the Pentagon was facing a number of tasks related to the renovation and development of military equipment. Work is currently underway to modernize the F-15 and F-35 fighter jets, as well as the B-52 strategic bombers.

Earlier, on March 21, Trump spoke about the development of a new generation fighter jet. According to him, the tests were conducted secretly for five years. The head of the White House said during his speech that the F-47 would demonstrate maneuverability and unsurpassability.
