    Create a long, chronological podcast on the history of fighter aircraft, from the first fighters to modern stealth jets. Explain what inspired major design shifts, including mission needs, threats, and technology limits. For each era, cover key fighters, their technical features (engines, aerodynamics, avionics, weapons), how they compared to rivals, combat lessons, and why each design mattered, then summarize the trends shaping modern fighters.
