So they don't actually know what direction to take aircraft in and decided on stealth.

Seems reasonable, all else being equal, the party that is detected last has a higher chance of winning.

What happens when a new detection method is developed that makes these planes not stealthy? Don't you then just have 4-5th gen craft that cost 2-10x as much?

Guess it takes a real war to discover the actual winner of modern warfare.
