And I believe a set of very fast computers can acquire data that aren't accessible to a human (merging multiple camera feed, cross corelate with radar, heat signature etc) and compute trajectories and strategies accordingly.

You can still use that data and present it to the pilot in a meaningful way. Not as gauges or numbers but with augmented vision, like seeing through the bottom of the aircraft.

That's also one of the reasons why JSF has taken so long...

Even with ideal information, humans takes conscious decisions in the order of a second, computers can drive below ms, I believe this changes everything when dealing with complex physics like jetfighters flight.
