#USAirForce to have 200 NGAD & 1000 CCA !

Secretary of the US Air Force Frank Kendall along with Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Acquisition, Technology & Logistics Andrew Hunter has provided important insights on the US Air Forces plans in a keynote address at the 2023 Air and Space Forces Association's Warfare Symposium in Aurora, Colorado.

Significant details have been revealed related to NGAD or Next Generation Air Dominance platform and CCA or Collaborative Combat Aircraft

Kendall stated US Air Force leadership has "recently given our planners a nominal quantity of collaborative combat aircraft to assume for planning purposes. The planning assumption is 1,000 CCAs,"
He explained,"This figure was derived from an assumed two CCAs for [each of] 200 NGAD platforms, and an additional two for each of 300 F-35s, for a total of 1,000."

This is the first time the service has given a real sense of the scope and scale of its plans for these two future aircraft types.
