Sure, cruise missiles are relatively easy targets for manned
aircraft - they have no external sensors, follow fixed to target
tracks, only real advantage is nap of the earth flying.
Air superiority UAV's will be a different kettle of fish.
I would imagine them being deployed with a pair of AARAM
missiles each under remote guidance from an AWACS - with
enough local processing to operate in battlefield conditions
with severe jamming. They will have smaller radar/i-r x-sections,
better turn rates than human operated vehicles, be cheaper to
deploy - in the final analysis they will act as their own air-to-air
missiles versus appropriate targets.
Moore's Law is driving all of this.
It will happen,
