Elon Musk, the renowned entrepreneur behind Tesla and SpaceX, has sparked another heated debate. This time, he’s taking aim at the Pentagon’s $1.8 trillion F-35 fighter jet program, calling it outdated in the era of autonomous drones. His comments have ignited a global conversation about the future of air combat and defense spending.

In a series of posts on X, Musk criticized the F-35 for being an expensive relic of the past, arguing that drones—autonomous, AI-driven, and unmanned—are the key to dominating modern warfare. Citing the rapid advancements in drone technology, Musk even called manned fighter jets "obsolete" and suggested they’d only lead to unnecessary pilot casualties in a battlefield increasingly defined by high-tech automation.

The F-35 program, developed by Lockheed Martin, is the most expensive defense project in history. While it has faced criticism for delays, cost overruns, and technical challenges, it’s hailed by many as a critical asset for modern militaries. With its advanced stealth capabilities, multi-role functionality, and global adoption, the F-35 is designed to dominate traditional and future battlefields alike.

This video explores Musk’s criticisms of the F-35, the ongoing evolution of autonomous drones, and the broader implications for the future of warfare. Is Musk right about the obsolescence of manned jets, or is the F-35 still a necessary tool in today’s combat arsenal?
