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%..
