  • A lot of the numbers that are "skipped" actually come from the experimental phase. multiple airframes will be developed by multiple manufactures and compete for the single slot that will actually be used. An example would be the F-22. During the X-22 days, there was also a X-23. the two companies competed for the bid with the USAF. Developed similar aircraft that would fill the role that was needed. And the USAF selected the one they deemed best. In this case, the X-23 was basically doomed from poor original design and changing the entire airframe mid experimental stage. And Fighters with really high numbers are not actual fighters. They are aircraft that have filled the funding for a fighter but the aircraft actually has a very different role. The F-111 is a great example, as that aircraft was basically a flying radar jammer and sub hunter. Or the F-117 which is a small bomber designed for precision strikes and small targets.

    • Many manufacturers also have their own company designation for military designs outside of the USAF tri service designation, like the P-8 Poseidon being a 737-800ERX, or the Lockheed C-141 being the L-300. This is mostly just the case when they’re developed from a civilian aircraft (like the P-8) or if the manufacturer intends/intended to sell the aircraft as a civilian model later (like the L-300). What’s even more interesting is the aircraft from foreign countries that use similar naming systems and completely ignore some of the conventions, like the Embraer C-390, which just so happens to use a numerical value three times that of the C-130 it replaces with Brazil.

    • Actually pretty accurate, but it can get a bit more complex. I also feel like talking about stuff so this will be a bit (extremely) long. in no particular order: D actually designates drone control systems, which aren't aircraft, although drone director aircraft are allowed as well under the same designation. H can designate search and rescue, medivac and just helicopter (AH-64 is attack helicopter 64, UH-60 is utility helicopter 64 and so on), helicopter of course being the most common. E doesn't simply mean electronically equipped as that would be all aircraft, but rather special electronic mission, usually early warning, radar jamming or something else like that. F does mean fighter, but the most common mistake I see is people assuming that is the aircrafts primary job, in reality aircraft that only have air to air as a secondary defense while primarily being for ground strike can also have this designation. M means multi mission, I'm not sure what you mean by "military mission" tbh, thats just all of them, it also used to mean missile carrier, and then mine countermeasure, those were both dropped when the navy stopped having use for them. W does in fact mean weather reconnaissance, but it will not be used alone, always with another letter (generally C, just like tankers) (example: WC-130). X means experimental, but also aircraft designed to carry out experiments not directly related to the aircraft (flying laboratories would receive the X designation). Z does mean planned when used as a status, just as J and N are used, however Z also used to mean lighter than air, to my knowledge this is no longer recognized. L does mean laser equipped, but this was dropped quite rapidly, with the failure of the YAL-1 airborne laser aircraft, it may come back now that lasers are coming back as well, it also means cold weather equipped, although thats basically all aircraft now. V in addition to VTOL/STOL (The OV-10 for example was a short takeoff observation aircraft) means VIP transportation when appended to another letter, now exclusive to presidential (and by transfer the vice president) transportation aircraft, the VC-25, the presidential 747, is an example of such a designation. I in fact does not exist as a designation, not even retired or rarely used like many of them, which is why you couldn't find it. Of course, the greatest of them all, P, it is only used as Patrol now, but it used to be used for Pursuit, as you listed, which was generally a fighter or interceptor. A will likely be retiring soon actually as its quite obsolete, every year for quite some time now the USAF has submitted plans to retire the A-10, the senate has denied these plans every time, it will likely take the aircraft seeing serious combat to convince the senate to approve its retirement as the USAF has been trying to do. The video also stated that the A-10 is the lone example of the A designation, this is not entirely true, excluding aircraft designated AC (AC-130 is quite a famous example), the A-29 Super Tucano currently holds this designation as well, and is possibly going to be one of the last to hold the designation, as it is the only fully modernized dedicated ground strike aircraft Anyway, I'm done pretending to know anything and talking too much.

    • @@_TheRealMud the A designation and it's retirement or not with the Hog is indicative of the strange place the military often finds itself. I expect the A-10 to eventually be retired purely from running out of parts. But Fighter/Attack aircraft are both expensive and fairly fragile. So something will come along that's more resistant to ground fire for that role when a whole air strike isn't needed. Seeing an AQ wouldn't be all that surprising now that I think about it (Ground-Attack drone)

    • You have to consider that prior to 1962 there was no real standard naming or numbering convention for aircraft. Which is why you have aircraft like the TBF-Avenger, SBD-Dauntless, the F4U Corsair and the F4F Wildcat. And why there is no real consistency between the numbering of the "P" aircraft (P-51, P-38 P-47 P-61 etc). Interestingly enough there is a similar naming convention in place for Naval Ships as well. CV, CVA, CVE, CVL, CVN are all designations for aircraft carriers. CC, CA, CL, CG are designations for cruisers, and DD, DDE, DDR, DDL DDG were used as designations for destroyers.

(B) The first one (YEH-60A) having a radar that was susceptible to ice. They fixed the icing problem in the B model.

Russian machines are a definite improvement, or at least they were before slipping well down the line again. I suspect learning from the Soviet way of running things (ie ranging from poorly to outright screwing themselves to be more evil with no benefit) is why China's military technology is so much better than Russia's ever has been, as well as their ability to manufacture complex systems domestically - big issue for Russia atm since they can't repair equipment with so many parts locked behind sanctions.
