The Fighter the U.S. Rejected… And Now the World Wants It Back

The YF-23 was one of the most advanced fighter jets ever built — and yet the U.S. military rejected it. In the early 1990s, the YF-23 competed directly against the YF-22 in the Advanced Tactical Fighter program. One would become the F-22 Raptor. The other would disappear into history. Or so everyone thought. This video tells the full story of the YF-23 Black Widow — a stealth fighter that could fly faster than the F-22 without afterburners, had an ultra-low radar signature, and featured a revolutionary aerodynamic design. So why did it lose? And why is its concept now coming back — not in the United States, but in Japan’s next-generation F-3 stealth fighter program? We break down: • The YF-23 vs F-22 competition • Why the Pentagon chose the YF-22 • What made the YF-23 so advanced • How Japan may revive the Black Widow concept • Whether the U.S. made the wrong decision This is the story of a fighter jet that was ahead of its time. 👇 Share your thoughts in the comments 👍 Like the video if you enjoy military aviation history 🔔 Subscribe for more deep dives into modern and future weapons --- #YF23 #BlackWidowFighter #YF23vsF22 #F22RaptorHistory #StealthFighterJet #FifthGenerationFighter #ATFProgram #ExperimentalFighterAircraft #MilitaryAviationHistory #ModernFighterJets #JapanF3Fighter #StealthAircraftTechnology #AirCombatEvolution
