I have read on several forums the confusion over new USAF aircraft receiving numbers in the "old" (pre-1962 series), like the C-144, T-45, UH-72, etc, while at the same time some designations of new aircraft are clearly in the "New" (post 1962) series, such as the T-6, H-3, and KC-46.
Can anyone say for certain what the next fighter, cargo aircraft, trainer and helo will be? As noted here and in other forums, there seems to be no rhyme or reason for one numbering series or another.
