Fact Or Fiction? A Closer Look At The MiG-41 Sixth-Gen Fighter

While Russia may be finally (and timidly) using its Su-57 fifth-generation fighter jets in Ukraine, the United States Air Force is well on its way to developing a sixth-generation fighter jet. Not to be outdone, Russia has announced it, too, is developing a sixth-generation fighter jet called the PAK DP or Mikoyan MiG-41 (although it currently lacks an official name). However, the MiG-41 tends to set the comments section of the internet aflame, with some claiming it will be the first and best 6th-generation fighter while others see it as little more than a Russian propaganda flight of fancy.
