Are dog fights still a thing? I think latency would also be quite disadvantageous for remote control. I imagine when AI is developed for future gen fighters we will have something of a dogfight between other counter AI controlled aircraft, but possibly at smaller scale? Fun to think of.

Latency won't be an issue with modern software. A human at a stick will confirm a target and authorize live fire, but the actual radar lock and fire can be controlled by a computer onboard. Same with bombing runs which will be even easier since most bomb worthy targets aren't very mobile.
