'The Apache makes better targeting decisions than Harrier, lucky we kept Tornado then'

How does a helicopter make targeting decisions? I thought that we kept 'people in the loop' just to enable better targeting decisions - hence Pred/Reapers still have folk (albeit a fair distance off) making decisions about what to do, they don't just launch off a make decisions based on computer programming (haven't we all seen Terminator or Wargames?). If Admirals think that ac (RW or FW) make decisions, then we may decide that we don't need Admirals anymore!
