ehhh, IMO, nothing beats a set of human eyes in the cockpit.

That sounds good, but the experiences with visibility, 7+g turns, 360 degree fields of vision in every attitude, all at supersonic speeds is beyond the capabilities of the human neck. Add in that over-the-horizon enemies can be on you in seconds, and the take-away is that eyeballs just are inadequate to the task. When you see it, its way too late.
