Based on current allocation of resources maybe. We can't ignore our population demographics and the large chunk of it that is to fat and or stupid to serve. There was a time when real time satellites data and hypersonic missiles were cutting edge science fiction stuff. Prove it s feasibility yes, unlike what we did with LCS , EMALS etc, but don't back burner it because it is unfamiliar. Horse cavalry used to be back to basics and what worked till it didn't real fast.

Totally agree -- e.g. F-22, MV-22, and the various iterations of laser technology. The roll out always has its challenges; but the other stuff was a series of dreams and emanations and penumbras.
