Then you haven't read anything on the subject published in the last few
decades.

Air-to-Air attacks today involve firing at a dot on a screen with the
actual target being way far away, like a hundred miles. It is the
electronics that lets this happen and that is independent of the
airframe and missiles.

Electronics by themselves have yet to win an air-to-air combat, as far
as I know.

Of course, even if it is useless, I would love to fly one!

It's not useless, just ridiculously expensive.
