Thought i still believe that from an over all stand point that the
living
pilots do has a sort of advantage..
the irrational thought..

but with AI fighters there could resonaly be a 10 AI fighter to 1 Human
fighter..  due to training and so on..

unless...:  you have a AI that is smart enough to learn..  there is sucj
thing as self modifing code..
and you have to admit that at a very small and uncomplex look that is a
limited AI.  (first steps at least).
