Defense Stocks Under Fire: Why I'm Buying The Dip My portfolio initially surged post-election but has since faced pressure due to market uncertainty surrounding Trump's controversial appointments and their economic impact. Key affected sectors include healthcare, defense, and consumer staples, with significant declines in stocks like Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman. I focus on the defense sector's sell-off, explaining the risk/reward outlook and emphasizing my investments in innovative defense companies like RTX and GE Aerospace. seekingalpha.com - 1 day ago
Lockheed Rides on Solid Order Growth Despite Labor Shortage LMT is expected to benefit from its steady inflow of orders and strong international demand for its broad range of products amid the shortage of skilled labor. zacks.com - 2 days ago
The Top Combat Aircraft in the US Air Force Has Been Flying Since 1978 The US Air Force is a formidable power with aircraft ranging from bombers to fighter jets to helicopters, and more. Newer models, like the 5th generation F-22 Raptor play a key role in the Air Force. However, some of the top-used aircraft have been around since the 1970s and are still dominating the fleet. (Also see every fighter plane in the US Air Force for the past 90 years.) 24/7 Wall St. took a close look at all of the currently active combat aircraft within the U.S. Air Force. To identify every combat aircraft in service, we reviewed data from the 2024 World Air Forces report from FlightGlobal, an aviation and aerospace industry website. Aircraft are ranked by active unit, and we’ve included supplemental information on the aircraft type, top speed, and armament, excluding trainer aircraft. Here is a look at every combat aircraft in the U.S. Air Force: Why Are We Covering This? Understanding the aircraft in the US Air Force is important because these aircraft play a pivotal role in maintaining national security and global stability. Each aircraft is designed for specific missions, from air superiority to strategic bombing and reconnaissance, which are essential for defending the country and projecting power abroad. Also knowing which aircraft are in service gives context to military capabilities and a better understanding of national defense. 16. B-21 Raider Type: Long range strategic stealth bomber Year introduced: Expected 2028 Active aircraft: 100 on order Top speed: 621 mph Armament: Conventional drop bombs, precision-guided bombs, nuclear-tipped bombs/missiles Within the next decade, the B-21 Raider is expected to enter service to augment the B-2 Spirit stealth bombers. It will be capable of carrying both conventional and precision-guided bombs, as well as nuclear-tipped bombs and missiles. So far 100 of these stealth bombers are on order, with test flights already having taken place within the past year. 15. Mi-171 Hip-H Type: Medium-lift transport helicopter Year introduced: 1981 Active aircraft: 1 Top speed: 158 mph Armament: Shturm missiles, rocket pods, 23mm cannon pods, 7.62mm machine guns Originally designed by the Soviets at the Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant, this has been a staple for the Russian Air Force for years. While this is a widely used helicopter for many militaries around the world, the U.S. Air Force only has one. However, American engineering for other more advanced helicopters like the Black Hawk or Apache is more of a priority for the U.S. Air Force. 14. AC-130W Stinger II Type: Special operations fixed-wing gunship Year introduced: 2010 Active aircraft: 3 Top speed: 300 mph Armament: 30mm Bushmaster II GAU-23/A gatling gun, Viper Strike missiles, Griffin missiles, Hellfire missiles The Stinger II is a step up from the legacy AC-130 gunships, notably integrating advanced missile systems. Built by Lockheed Martin, this gunship only recently entered service in 2010. Armed with a 30mm Bushmaster II GAU-23/A gatling gun, along with Viper Strike, Griffin, and Hellfire missiles, The Stinger II is designed to deliver serious firepower in support of ground forces. 13. Leonardo AW139 Type: Medium-lift utility helicopter Year introduced: 2003 Active aircraft: 4 Top speed: 193 mph Armament: 7.62mm general purpose machine guns Originally designed and constructed by Leonardo, the AW139 is used by both the military and civilians. There are currently four in active service of the U.S. Air Force. Originally, these helicopters were designed for search-and-rescue missions, but they have been adopted for other purposes since then. The military version can equip small machine guns, but its primary designation is not for combat. 12. B-2 Spirit Type: Strategic stealth heavy bomber Year introduced: 1997 Active aircraft: 17 Top speed: 628 mph Armament: Air-launched cruise missiles, strategic free-fall nuclear bombs, conventional drop bombs, joint direct attack munitions, JASSM missiles Introduced in 1997, the B-2 Spirit is a strategic stealth heavy bomber with a top speed of 628 mph. It is designed to deliver a wide range of ordnance including nuclear bombs. Although there are only 17 of these aircraft in active service, they can punch far above their class in terms of what they can deliver in payload. 11. AC-130J Ghostrider Type: Ground attack / close-air support Year introduced: 2017 Active aircraft: 29 Top speed: 416 mph Armament: 30mm ATK GAU-23/A automatic cannon, 105mm M102 field howitzer, Griffin missiles, Viper Strike precision-guided bombs, Hellfire missiles, drop bombs The Ghostrider is the latest in the AC-130 gunship series. Although these gunships do not carry nukes, they can equip practically any other ordnance even a gun meant for ground artillery. The Ghostrider is easily one of the most heavily armed aircraft in the U.S. Air Force. Most notably in Ghostrider’s arsenal is its 105mm howitzer, which is typically seen on ground artillery platforms. This big gun delivers serious firepower with pinpoint accuracy from far above the battlefield, giving it an incredible tactical advantage. Outside of the 105mm howitzer, Ghostrider can equip a variety of missiles like Hellfires or Griffins, precision-guided bombs, or even just the basic conventional drop bombs. 10. B-1B Lancer Type: Strategic heavy bomber Year introduced: 1986 Active aircraft: 42 Top speed: 833 mph Armament: Joint direct attack munitions, general purpose bombs, naval mines, cluster munitions, SRAM missiles, JASSM missiles, JSOW missiles, freefall nuclear bombs Introduced in 1986, the B-1B Lancer is a strategic heavy bomber that is capable of reaching speeds up to 833 mph, which makes it one of the fastest bombers in the U.S. Air Force. It carries a wide range of armaments, including joint direct attack munitions, general-purpose bombs, JASSM missiles, and even freefall nuclear bombs. 9. CV-22 Osprey Type: Tilt rotor VTOL aircraft Year introduced: 2007 Active aircraft: 52 Top speed: 316 mph Armament: 7.62mm machine guns, 12.7mm machine guns Known for its unique ability to takeoff and land vertically like a helicopter and then adjust its rotors to operate like a turboprop plane, the CV-22 Osprey is one of the more unique aircraft in the U.S. Air Force. It is manufactured by Bell Boeing and plays key roles in U.S. special operations missions like infiltration, extraction, and resupply. The U.S. Marine Corps uses this aircraft extensively for troop deployment and extraction, or even just for logistical purposes. The Osprey also can refuel mid-flight which significantly extends its range for longer missions. 8. UH-1N Twin Huey Type: Multi-role utility helicopter Year introduced: 1970 Active aircraft: 64 Top speed: 150 mph Armament: 12.7mm GAU-16 machine gun, 7.62mm machine guns, 70mm rocket pods The UH-1N Twin Huey is a multi-role utility helicopter introduced in 1970, with a top speed of 150 mph and a wide range of armaments, including 12.7mm GAU-16 machine guns and 70mm rocket pods. It was manufactured by Bell Helicopter, and it has been widely used by the U.S. military since the 1970s. There have been many variations of the UH-1 Huey that span a number roles, but mainly combat. Other notable variants are the UH-1 Iroquois, UH-1Y Venom, and AH-1 Cobra. 7. B-52H Stratofortress Type: Long range strategic heavy bomber Year introduced: 1955 Active aircraft: 72 Top speed: 595 mph Armament: ACLM cruise missiles, Harpoon missiles, CALCM cruise missiles, joint direct attack munitions, freefall nuclear bombs The B-52 is one of the longest serving aircraft in the U.S. Air Force, introduced in 1955. It was originally developed in the post-World War II years to succeed the B-29 Superfortress, which dropped the bomb on Japan. The B-52s were designed to carry larger payloads than the B-29, including nuclear weapons. The Stratofortress acted as a strong nuclear deterrent throughout the Cold War as well. 6. S-70 Black Hawk Type: Medium-lift multi-mission helicopter Year introduced: 1979 Active aircraft: 96 Top speed: 183 mph Armament: 7.62mm machine guns, Hellfire missiles, 12.7mm gatling guns, M134 gatling guns, rocket pods, 30mm chain gun Black Hawk helicopters have played important roles in conflicts around the globe. One infamous instance was the conflict in Somalia in 1993, particularly the Battle of Mogadishu. The Black Hawk played a significant role in urban combat and casualty evacuation under intense fire. This story would go on to make it as a blockbuster movie famously titled “Black Hawk Down.” It is by far one of the most iconic helicopters ever built. It is the workhorse of the U.S. military with over a few thousand units currently in service across all branches. The Black Hawk features twin turboshaft engines, a single four-bladed main rotor, and a four-bladed tail rotor, which allow for top speeds over 180 mph. Typically, this helicopter carries a crew of two pilots and two crew chiefs and can transport up to 11 fully equipped soldiers. In total, the Black Hawk can carry a payload of roughly 9,000 pounds. 5. F-22 Raptor Type: 5th generation air dominance fighter aircraft Year introduced: 2005 Active aircraft: 178 Top speed: 1,599 mph Armament: 20mm automatic cannon, Sidewinder missiles, AMRAAM missiles, joint drop munitions, drop bombs, air-launched cruise missiles The F-22 Raptor is one of the elite fifth-generation aircraft, introduced in 2005. It features some of the newest stealth technology and can hit speeds around Mach 2. It comes equipped with a 20mm automatic cannon standard and can be outfitted with Sidewinder and AMRAAM missiles, as well as joint drop munitions and air-launched cruise missiles. In addition to its impressive speed and firepower, the F-22 Raptor is known for its unmatched agility and advanced avionics, making it a dominant force in both air superiority and strike missions. One interesting fact about this aircraft is that the Raptor’s supercruise ability enables it to sustain high-speed flight without the need for afterburners. This sets it apart from most other fighters, which typically require afterburners to exceed the speed of sound. The F-22 Raptor can sustain speeds of Mach 1.5 to Mach 2 in supercruise mode. 4.

Its twin-engine design provides serious thrust, allowing some variants to carry over 16,000 pounds of ordnance, including air-to-air missiles and bombs. One thing that stands out with this jet is its combat record. Since its introduction, the F-15 has claimed more than 100 air-to-air victories without a single loss in combat. The F-15 has been used in several conflicts, including Operation Desert Storm, where it proved its air superiority by downing numerous Iraqi aircraft. The Strike Eagle has seen extensive combat as well, especially in ground-attack operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. 1.

It has become popular with many militaries around the world, and many are looking to procure these jets. Early variants of the F-16 sell for roughly $13 million with more recent variants starting between $25 and $30 million. However, the most advanced versions of this aircraft can cost anywhere upwards of $60 million. The F-16 comes standard with a 20mm internal automatic cannon and can be equipped with a range of air-to-air missiles and air-to-ground missiles. It can reach speeds of roughly 1,300 mph and has an operational range of 2,600 miles. The Fighting Falcon fills a variety of roles for any air force but it is primarily used for interception and general strike missions.
