Yeah thats alot of force. I'm sure every drop of steel/alum/titanium has been thoroughly alloyed/pressed/treated - frame could flex at rate of 15-20G for up to 2 seconds? Dogfighters see one another pull up (or dive initiate) and expect a loop, and so they think in maneuver sequences that occur in 5-10 second chunks. Also a cadence of countermeasure ejection turn-taking to deplete opponent heat-seeking payload, punctuated in between fixed projectile fire. "Checkmate" occurs when a dogfighter has successfully "landed" a loop or sequence of maneuvers that gives them a shot behind their opponent. I'm wondering if the modern combat aircraft would have gimballed barrels and auto-aiming (non-projectile speed of light high intensity laser could melt a fuel tank). If this were true, then by default pilots are already setting up shots as you say using a form of AI assistance. The question I have is, auto-aiming aside, how would an NN understand how to coordinate these "chess moves". This question becomes irrelevant if suddenly there could be a positive to negative G change mid-loop that no seasoned dogfighter could ever expect to happen.
