US FINALLY Unveils UFO Fighter Jet That Defies Physics!
The rumor traces back to viral posts about Elon Musk unveiling a UFO-like fighter jet capable of anti-gravity, quantum tech, hypersonic maneuvers, and more. However, PolitiFact thoroughly fact-checked those claims, concluding there is no credible evidence or official reporting to support them. They rated the claim “Pants on Fire!” and noted that no such aircraft called “Ethereon” exists or has been announced by SpaceX—or indeed any credible source PolitiFact.
In contrast, there is legitimate news about the U.S. developing a true next-generation fighter jet—the Boeing F-47, part of the Air Force’s Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program. This Sixth-generation stealth fighter, expected to replace the F-22 Raptor, is designed to operate alongside autonomous drone wingmen, has begun prototype development, and is expected to enter service between 2025 and 2029 New York PostThe Washington PostBusiness InsiderWikipedia.
Quick comparison:
| Claim | Reality |
|---|---|
| US unveiled a UFO fighter jet with anti-gravity, quantum propulsion, defying physics | False. No credible reports or official announcements back this up. Deemed misinformation by PolitiFact PolitiFact |
| US developing next-generation fighter (F-47) with stealth and drone integration | True. F-47 is a real program under the NGAD initiative, backed by Boeing and the U.S. Air Force New York PostThe Washington PostBusiness InsiderWikipedia |
So in short: the “UFO fighter jet that defies physics” is just a viral hoax or fantasy. Meanwhile, the F-47 is very much real—but it’s an advanced sixth-generation stealth fighter, not a sci-fi UFO.
