They still do. Military exercises are not about determining which side is better. It’s about learning things, practicing things, simulating things, etc. Often times one side will fail and then the exercise will continue on as if they succeeded, because, again, the point is not to score wins and loses. It’s fact-finding. It’s training.
It’s kind of like of the F35 loses in dogfights to older planes whenever they test that scenario. If the F35 is in a dogfight in real life, a completely unrealistic number of things have lined up and gone wrong for that pilot. In real life the F35 would just shoot the older planes out of the sky from the other side of the horizon.
