Implies that the US sixth-generation fighter jet can't be made? Trump distances himself: I don't like the F-47
Trump is preparing to shift blame early.
On the 21st, during his speech at the Davos Forum, Trump mentioned the US sixth-generation fighter jet F-47, saying that it was named "47", but he "doesn't like this name" and doesn't know why this aircraft was named "47".
This is Trump's nonsense. The most common explanation for why the US sixth-generation fighter jet uses the number "47" is to celebrate Trump becoming the 47th president of the United States - this is the original statement from the US Air Force, which said, "to honor the 47th president's support for the NGAD program," and Trump's response at the time was "47 is a beautiful number" - so Trump definitely knew about this.
Then why is Trump now saying he "doesn't like this name" and doesn't know why this aircraft was named "47"?
The American website "The War Zone" speculated that this is likely Trump's preparation to shift blame, meaning that if the F-47 project succeeds, the credit will naturally include him; but if the project fails, the face-saving Trump certainly doesn't want his reputation to be associated with it.
