Congress would get detailed plans for the Air Force's F-47 fighter jet program.

Right now, there's no specific requirement for the Air Force to tell Congress about its F-47 advanced fighter jet program. This bill would change that, requiring the Air Force to send a full report by March 1, 2027. This report would explain the F-47's plans, costs, and how it would involve the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve.

What Would Change

Currently, the Air Force is not required to provide Congress with a specific, detailed report on its F-47 advanced fighter jet program. If this bill becomes law, the Secretary of the Air Force would have to submit a comprehensive report by March 1, 2027. This report would cover the F-47's requirements, costs, acquisition plans, and how it would be deployed, including the role of the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve.
