There is a continuum - early spads, tossing bombs, shooting rifles - then machine guns (MG's) on axis, then gunner steered MG's, then axis rockets - then radar rockets - then AI rockets - then AI planes with AI rockets, then AI rockets with AI submunitions, and sub-sub munitions.
Later AI's abd AI rockets capable of 100+ G turns.
I see the fighter space fully non-survivable for manned fighters, with 100+ G opponents.
Overlay this with mature jamming on 4 or more sublevels.
I can see Tesla self driving AI packages, shaped to fit to be the teachable AI's that are NOW capable of running these shows. Same applies to high speed anti tank/truck/ship remote killers.
High level management inertia in the Air Force hierarchy has been stalling these developments. You can bet Russia and China are on all this, so we must adopt ASAP while we have the electronics lead?
