It's a multi-role fighter aircraft, not simply air superioity. It needs to be able to carry air to surface ordnance We're not quite in the sci-fi future yet Drone swarms exist, but mostly do intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance in the field. The perdix drones that the us military does have are powered by propeller, so so they can't keep up with a fighter jet that can go Mach 1.6 or carry or current supply of air to surface missiles. I believe that the way they would attack a fighter aircraft is turn themselves into Kamikaze missiles. They're still working the bugs out and trying to perfrct their autonomous behavior...which scares the shit out of me as I write this. This is the only application of AI that causes me fear and anxiety. Thankfully, they don't have any weapons platforms yet
