Why isn't variable wing geometry used in 5th generation fighters?
That makes sense. Are there any other reasons why it's not used?
Yes, another reason is that variable wing geometry adds weight and complexity to the aircraft. 5th generation fighters are designed to be stealthy, and minimizing weight and complexity is important to achieving that goal. Additionally, variable wing geometry can make the aircraft more vulnerable to damage, as there are more moving parts that can be hit by enemy fire.
