Fighters also have ejection seats, which provide the final fail safe mechanism. So you can use more radical and risky solutions without unduly putting the pilot

Fighters also have ejection seats, which provide the final fail safe mechanism. So you can use more radical and risky solutions without unduly putting the pilot at risk. I imagine the calculus works differently for bombers, cargo, and helicopter aircraft.
