Rafale, F-15EX and Gripen: fourth-generation fighters still winning global orders
Despite the global race for fifth- and sixth-generation stealth fighters, fourth- and 4.5-generation jets continue to attract major international orders. Rafale, F-15EX, Gripen, F-16 and Eurofighter Typhoon programmes are expanding as countries seek capable aircraft that are cheaper and faster to acquire than stealth platforms. Modern upgrades, including AESA radars, advanced avionics and long-range missiles such as Meteor, have narrowed parts of the capability gap. These fighters also offer high payload capacity and flexibility across multiple missions. However, their larger radar signatures and less advanced sensor fusion leave them more vulnerable in heavily contested airspace. Rather than replacing stealth fighters, fourth-generation aircraft are increasingly being integrated alongside them, providing additional numbers, weapons capacity and operational flexibility at a lower cost.#FighterJets #FourthGenerationFighters #4thGenFighters #4_5Generation #StealthFighters #FifthGenerationFighter
