I basically agree with this, and would even go further and say that I'm a nationalist and explicitly for one country. With that being said, there's an added dimension that you left out- that this aiming technology then gets adopted by the other superpower, then by other major militaries, and eventually filters its way down to minor combatants. And the balance of power between the two superpowers, one of whom I'm a member of, stays basically as it was before- just that now the whole world is that much more lethal.
Like, the term 'arms race' got popularized to describe this exact situation. I'm not even arguing against the technology described here, but just more cynical about the ultimate effects
