The main difference from the fifth generation will lie in the fact that the basic version of the sixth-generation fighter is expected to be unmanned. The possibility of pilot control will be optional. All the other characteristics represent a further development of the already existing ones(The sixth-generation fighters will be) even faster, even more manoeuvrable, even more imperceptible, and so on,” Sputnik quoted him as saying.
