A glimpse of future combat aviation: F-15EX, Ghost Bat team up over Pacific
The US Air Force is pioneering Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCAs), or loyal wingmen, as part of its sixth-generation fighter program. These autonomous drones, like the MQ-28 Ghost Bat, are being tested in the Pacific alongside manned jets. India is also developing its own loyal wingman, the CATS Warrior, to enhance its fighter fleet's capabilities in future aerial combat scenarios.
