Not neccessarily, I don't know the science behind it but, the FT viggen, FT-22, and other jets that I have seen have completely flat wings.

Hi all, does a jet need an airfoil? Or can jt be flat wing??

Mostly not however adding airfoil will support/help you with extra lift at slower speeds (MAGIC)
i have a few jets with flat wings but get better flight with adding KF airfoils

A flat wing plane or jet will fly. An airfoil wing will fly better, that is will generate more lift with less drag.
