this is the current problem with advancing armaments like fighter jets, tanks, cruisers, etc. The development cycles can be so long and harrowing that by the time its out, theres already cheap countermeasures against them. Like right now the US is having problems figuring out what to do with their navy because a hard counter to their ships is to just have a bunch of speed boats loaded with a single torpedo each and zerg rush the damn things as Iran figured out. In terms of cost efficiency, theres no contest.
Jeune Ecole is a disastrous meme in the face of the helicopter and the Sea Skua.
