[AI Library] Epilogue: Who Will Rule the Sky?
Epilogue: Who Will Rule the Sky?
Epilogue: Who will rule the sky? In the summer of 2024, two F-16s faced each other in the sky above Edwards Air Force Base. Two fighter jets rushing toward each other at 900 kilometers per hour. There was no one sitting in the cockpit of one of them. AI was at the controls. A fierce dogfight lasted for an hour. The result may have been foretold. The human pilots were defeated. But does this mean the end? It has been flying for decades. While performing Wild Weasel missions, I jumped into the middle of enemy air defenses and crossed the line between life and death countless times in a cockpit with a radar warning receiver blaring like crazy.
When the G-force pressed down on my body, even at the moment when my vision narrowed and I lost consciousness, my fingers did not let go of the control wheel. human limitations. It definitely exists. Under the pressure of 9G, my heart had to beat at three times its normal speed and I had to strain my stomach with all my might to maintain blood flow to my brain. AI does not know such pain. No fear, no fatigue, no hesitation. It judges and reacts to situations in milliseconds. So is the era of Top Gun really coming to an end? Should human pilots, like Maverick in the movie, become a relic of the past?
Looking back on history, this is not the first time this question has been asked. By 1957, American military leaders had declared that the era of manned fighter aircraft was over. They said that now that the era of missiles has come, pilots are no longer needed. But 70 years later, humans are still sitting in fighter jet cockpits. The Vietnam War upset that prediction. Missiles alone could not dominate a complex battlefield. It required human judgment, intuition, and understanding of the situation. It reminds me of the days when Roman legionaries stood on the battlefield holding gladius swords. That short sword was not just a weapon.
It contained the spirit of a warrior who had to fight while making eye contact with the enemy in close formation. The same was true for medieval longbowmen. The power to pull the bowstring, the eye to read the wind, and the sense to predict the enemy's movements. Weapons have changed, but the role of humans in handling them has not disappeared. The war in the sky will be no different.
What we are witnessing now is not an apocalypse, but an evolution. In 2025, in Sweden, Saab's Gripen E fighter jet was equipped with an AI called 'Centaur' and conducted a test flight with a human pilot. This AI is not intended to replace pilots. It was created to help. It analyzes complex sensor data, organizes threats by priority, and provides pilots with the information they need to make decisions. In other words, AI is a tireless combat assistant. The US Air Force's 'loyal wingman' concept is in the same context. A manned fighter piloted by a human pilot becomes the squadron leader, and drones controlled by AI guard his side.
Just like in an ancient battlefield, a general was surrounded by guards and advanced into the enemy camp. X-BAT, developed by Shield AI, is an unmanned fighter jet that can take off and land vertically without a runway. A range of over 2,000 nautical miles and a flight altitude of over 50,000 feet. The future in which these aircraft operate alongside the F-35 is approaching. Lockheed Martin is working on making the F-35 a 'selectively manned aircraft'. Depending on the situation, the same fighter can be flown by a human pilot or an AI can fly alone.
Dangerous missions are left to AI, and humans step in in situations that require complex judgment. China is not standing still either. Sixth-generation fighter prototypes, believed to be J-36 and J-50, appeared in the sky. Another stealth aircraft was spotted in August 2025. It could be a loyal wingman drone, or a brand new decoy. In Europe, two sixth-generation fighter projects are underway simultaneously: GCAP and FCAS. And then there is South Korea. The KF-21 Boramae is our first domestically produced supersonic fighter jet. Adding to this is the NACS program, which combines AI and unmanned aerial vehicles.
Korea Aerospace Industries is planning a manned and unmanned complex system linked to low-orbit communication satellites. Small countries need to be smarter to survive among great powers. Combining the human brain with the speed of machines. That is our way. If you ask me who will be the ruler of heaven, I will answer: Neither human nor AI. The one who joins the two will rule the sky.
Just as a knight roamed the battlefield as one with his horse, future combat pilots must become one with AI. When a radar alert sounds, an enemy missile flies, or when millisecond decisions are needed, AI analyzes data and presents choices. However, the final decision to pull the trigger and bear the weight of it still rests with humans. Ethical responsibility, legal responsibility, and responsibility in the face of history. That cannot be handed over to a machine. I look up at the sky again today. We don't know whether what will one day fly through that blue sky will be a human, a machine, or a combination of the two.
One thing is certain: Heaven will always belong to the bravest, wisest, and best prepared. It was true on the battlefields of BC, it was true during the biplane days of World War I, and it is true now in the era of the F-22 and F-35. Even in the coming era of AI, that truth will not change. Descendants of fighter pilots, have no fear. Adapt. Evolve. Just as pilots of the past transitioned from propellers to jet engines and from mechanical controls to fly-by-wire, you too must move toward coexistence with AI. That is the way to survive, the way to victory, and the way to become the ruler of heaven. The infinite sky spreads beyond the canopy.
It is an area that still requires human dreams and courage. No matter how advanced AI is, only humans know why they fight and what they protect. Even though the technology of war changes, the nature of war does not change. And at the center of that essence, humans always stand. Who will be the ruler of heaven? The answer ultimately depends on ourselves.
