Impact of study on US military’s F-22 fighter jet could be great given range of its air-to-air missiles and required radius for ground bomb attacks, says team.
This is true of current gen air combat, but I’m speculating about a future where dogfighting once again becomes the only way to achieve air superiority.
No. Humans in aircraft are on the way out. Drones are the future. When the drones are significantly cheaper than the missiles used to shoot them down, logistics inevitably wins.
Oh I never said it would be humans piloting the sixth gen dogfighters. They’re gonna be drones designed to withstand sustained 20G turns to be able to get their guns on target, commanded from something like an AWACS.
its gonna be factories spending all our resources and polluting the planet further just so robots can fight robots, and the robots who win get to slaughter or enslave the civilians.
