Bah. Manned fighters, with sole exception of the F-22, are already outdated.

We're flying 1,000 UAV's and UCAV's per day in Iraq alone right now.

A few ancient Eurofighters aren't going to stop a swarm of 1,000 UCAV's from Iran or China or Russia or Turkey, much less multiple swarms of multiple thousands of UCAV's attacking from multiple directions.

Assuming anyone has the command/control/etc to process data in a real toe-to-toe shoot out (the thousands of UAV's from multiple directions noted elsewhere):
sounds like the next one will be a one time "fire and forget", start the war, refuel and rearm as often as you can, and wait to see who 'won' it the next morning.
