New Delhi. The role of fighter jets is very important in the security of the country’s borders. Fighter aircraft have their own importance for air security. In modern warfare, the role of Air Force and Navy has become more than that of the Army. Throughout the world, the Air Force of that country is considered to be the most powerful and strong, which has advanced and state-of-the-art fighter jets. In this matter, countries like America, China, Britain, France, India are prominent. The design of a fighter jet is largely different from ordinary aircraft. If you have noticed, the front part of the fighter jet is quite sharp. The front part of fighter planes is so sharp as if it is the upper part of a missile. On the other hand, the design of the front part of passenger or commercial aircraft is different. The question is why does this happen?
The front part of fighter planes is much sharper than normal planes. Actually, this is done considering the speed of the aircraft. The front part of a fighter jet is made sharp or pointed as part of the design. This affects the speed of the aircraft. The sharp front part improves the speed of the aircraft and due to this fighter jets are able to fly at a faster speed than commercial aircraft. Due to the needle tip part, the aerodynamics of the fighter jet improves. This helps a lot in flying the aircraft at relatively high speed. Let us tell you that the speed of commercial planes is less than that of fighter jets.

What is Aerodynamics?
Any object moves in the air due to aerodynamics. Due to better aerodynamics, fighter jets cover distances at a faster speed than normal planes. Aerodynamics of hypersonic and supersonic jets (faster than the speed of sound) are much better. This is the reason why its speed is very fast and it reaches the target quickly. Only through the analysis of aerodynamics can we know how any aircraft moves or flies in the air. The nose of fighter planes is made pointed so that it can move forward by rapidly separating it even in the presence of dense air.
Fighter jet vs commercial plane
A fighter jet is different from a commercial plane in many respects. There is a provision to fit missiles in fighter jets, so that the target can be targeted and destroyed. Apart from this, the number of people sitting in the fighter jet is very less. The speed of fighter aircraft ranges from hypersonic to supersonic. This means that the fighter jet is capable of flying faster than the speed of sound. On the other hand, the sides of commercial aircraft are not as sharp. The front part of such aircraft is almost circular in shape. Also, a large number of people can travel sitting in it.
