The “but the AI had total situational awareness” crowd have a good point. As @AussieFCI points out, we don’t have the sensors required to achieve such awareness - yet. But when we do, I venture a machine will be better at fusing data at the decision speed required for a dogfight.
The real question we should be asking is: given the tech advances of the last few decades, is dogfighting still a thing? Just because it was really important in the Battle of Britain and fighter pilots like it, doesn’t make it a useful #FutureWar construct.
