Abstract

ACES - "Air Combat Evaluation System" is a research flight simulator specialized in within visual range (WVR) air-to-air combat. The system consists of two simulator cabins (pilot stations) and one instructor station. ACES is built around several pedagogical tools intended to make WVR-combat much easier to learn. ACES is a research simulator used for evaluation of pedagogical concepts of learning dogfight and to serve as a development simulator to demonstrate and evaluate the strengths of embedded pedagogical tools and online (real-time) analyses of important air combat flight parameters.
