I wonder about pilotless fighters.I am old enough to recall various studies into this. (HIMAT for example, part of which explored remote piloting...now about 40 years ago). I recall it was predicted in many quarters that it was just over the horizon, approaching fast. And yet, here we are, still with piloted fighter jets.I'm idly wondering how effective "loyal wingmen" types will be, beyond the sacrificial, or air-to-ground.
