Wrong wrong

A -laser- or, simply, colimator "guided" (in the terms of distance/track or
whatever) gun and simple ballistic (read steel, lead)round would make a nice
30 mm hole in aircraft B. It does things to high-velocity turbofan/jet
engines when it contacts turbine blades, y'know...

Unless aircraft b is invisible )))))

In short stealth is nice but lots of other factors come into play, eg
Aircraft A is 100% invisible, but aircraft B has a 100% effective
defensive decoy system.

Who wins??

The stealth plane, because he's got a cannon and you can't
decoy ballastic rounds. ;-)

Wrong....

The guns are radar guided, and the actual projectile is explosive and
therefor has to be triggered by something spoof either and that fits
in with a 100% effective decoy system.

The only caveat is in the real world nothing is 100%..
