Let’s ask fighter pilots if removing the pilot from the fighter jet is a good idea?

Cars don’t tend to do much dogfighting. Fact is for most of the “peaceful” parts of a flight fighter pilots are using the autopilot. So their answer would probably be “as long as nobody is shooting at you”.

With advancing air defense technology and the ever greater Gs aircraft and missiles are capable of pulling, I think the handwriting is pretty much on the wall for in-aircraft combat pilots.
