wouldnt it be wild if by some twist of technology there was an advantage to propeller planes in future combat roles? Perhaps missile avoidance etc.

The close-engagement dogfight would be based on the skill of the pilot or controller for prop-drones. I suppose that this is romanticizing war but...

But the air combat sims (games) are more engrossing with WWI or II aircraft than fast-movers.
