The Chinese AI won human pilot in air combat.

When we say that humans beat AI, we can always ask, can the average person make that thing? Can the average chess player win AI if the world champion can? Or can an average pilot beat the AI in air combat? If the best pilots can? 

Chinese authorities are interested in AI's military applications. One of them is the advanced autopilot. That can operate as air combat duties. Advanced AI can beat humans in air combat. And that fits into the Chinese state policy. The AI and LLMs are tools that can revolutionize air combat. 

And this is one of the reasons why those things are under development. The main role of the Chinese military is political trust. 

Every time the pilot is alone in a plane. It's always possible that. The person starts to rebel and attack against the Communist Party HQ. This is one of the reasons why drone technology is under development. 

Being alone in the cockpit allows pilots to rebel. 

The kill switch can solve that problem.

It's always possible that hackers get an activation code for that switch. In that case, hackers can destroy multiple aircraft. 

If a pilot flies the mission from the ground. Next to military police. 

This authority can arrest the pilot. If something goes wrong in the mission. 

Also, things like the Tiananmen case caused suspicion that the security troops might not want to operate as government orders.

In the news, The Pentagon connected to robot armies. 

However, trust is the reason why China and its government research robotics. And especially its military applications. 

And we can say that. China is the top government in AI and its military application research. 

The drone aircraft can operated remotely. Or it can operate independently. 

The remotely operated drones are quite easy to jam. That makes them vulnerable. But if a robot fighter operates independently. The last ones are the result of microchip advances. The AI can give new abilities to regular drones and cruise missiles. The drone can make evasive maneuvers. The thing that makes the AI-controlled robot systems superior is that the AI doesn't matter things like G-force. And it can make maneuvers, fatal to humans. 

Without human control, the opponent's last hope is that the control algorithm will not work as it should. The automatic bombardment systems probably already exist. The aircraft or drone must only know the drop point for the bomb. 

And large-size drones can also drop GPS or optically homing bombs. The GPS is an effective system, but it's easy to jam. This is the reason why the replacement for that system is under development. 

The homing system uses an image-based homing system as the Javelin missile. The system has the image of the target. And then the bomb can fly into it.

The system can use a hybrid system. A combination of inertial navigation, a modified TERCOM system, or GPS for that thing. The inertial (gyroscope) is immune against ECM. 

The aircraft or drone can fly to the drop point even if ECM jams the GPS. Using that navigation. Then, the system can drop the bomb. 

That flies into the target first using the inertial. And optical seeker. 

The system flies to the target. Searching for structures that are similar to that stored in its memories. 

When its camera sees a target. A weapon starts to glide against its target. That system is made to operate. Even, if the ECM cuts satellite connections.
