The Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II is one of the few fifth-generation Military aircraft currently in operation. Compared with all the others still flying in the world, it’s a true junior, having been born just 16 years ago. Yet, in the fast-evolving world of today, it’s already in need of some upgrades. Enter the XA100 Adaptive Cycle Engine, a piece of Technology in the process of being made in the labs of General Electric (GE). It’s a piece of hardware described as capable of giving the F-35 revolutionary capabilities (next-gen combat propulsion, they say), and more importantly, it’ll probably make its way into the world’s first sixth-generation fighter aircraft, the so far-called Next Generation Air Dominance (NGAD).

ATLANTIC OCEAN — The aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78) is bringing vital information to the fleet from its Aircraft Compatibility Testing (ACT), which began off the East Coast ACT is allowing the crew of Ford to further test its Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System (EMALS) and Advanced Arresting Gear (AAG), two Aircraft Launch and Recovery Equipment (ALRE) systems unique to Ford. It’s also allowing the crew and embarked test personnel to rigorously evaluate the effect of the CVN 78 air wake, or burble, and its compatibility with all types of fleet aircraft the Navy utilizes on an aircraft carrier. “What we’re doing is validating years of test catapult shots that were done at the EMALS test facility at Lakehurst, New Jersey, and years of arrestments on AAG at Lakehurst, then taking that data, bringing it to sea and using it on installed equipment aboard our ship, now in an austere underway environment with different wind and environmental conditions to build those...
