F35 is the most advanced 5th Gen stealth fighter aircraft

[{"selector":"#anim-91d2f9eb-8ac6-41ce-87ca-fc983f8089f1","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-6d9b2e64-ff91-407c-858e-4b1bf31e2b00","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-113.22315%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

The F-35 can carry weapons internally (in stealth configuration) or externally.

Recently, Canada got the F35 at a whopping price of $450 million per aircraft

[{"selector":"#anim-cecfe16e-bdc7-4c9a-a883-ddd057d0dc81","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-14d64f13-8f3d-4178-ae44-ea00a500e7a2","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, -395.54093%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

Surely, the F35 is very costly and expensive to maintain/operate

[{"selector":"#anim-71d8bd2c-9ec9-4894-8a92-df71a2b7f3d4","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-8d362b58-bd44-460b-8881-14a93ccb4949","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 349.85611%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

India is also working on 5th Generation fighter aircraft AMCA
