While chess is a battle focusing on maneuvers to eliminate the king, Weiqi, more commonly known as Go, forces the player to focus on position, encirclement and counter-encirclement. what you find is that the artificial intelligence community has been experimenting with what started in board games chess, 'Go,' and very rapidly within the last 10 years moved into real-time video games," Javorsek said, recapping the first two days of the competition. "When you look at these artificial intelligence games that are played. But employing an AI adversary - a system that learns and self-corrects in real-time - will make pilots more aware of how they can and should think differently while up in the air. Javorsek said AI algorithms cannot totally replicate the way pilots train or get ready for a head-to-head fight with enemy aircraft or new threats posed from adversaries such as Russia or China. He was forced to use all his time on evasive maneuvers, he said, which were ultimately unsuccessful. The fighter pilot's goal is to maximize the jet to arrive at a point where it can shoot to win the fight, he said.īut the AI ultimately secured its victory without allowing Banger the chance to fire back. "I'm trying to solve for angles and different closures, airspeed differences, etc., to arrive at a position where I can employ my weapon or whatever I choose onto an enemy aircraft," Banger said during a phone call with reporters. The pilot was only identified by his call sign. "We're performing complex physics in a dynamic environment," added Banger, the F-16 pilot who squared off against Heron in the final round.
The AI-powered aircraft used other confrontational moves during the simulation, such as directly flying toward one another at a close, 100-foot range without letting up until the last possible second - a high-stakes game of chicken.īut these maneuvers went beyond the scope of how human pilots train to face off at the elite Air Force Weapons School - the service's version of Top Gun - at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, Javorsek said.
I thought after getting comfortable with basic maneuvering and taking off and landing in different parts of the Bay Area, I’d lookup some basic combat maneuvers such as the Immelmann and Split-S and see if I could carry those out.įor DCS World is the suggestion for beginners to get a hold of some of the Flaming Cliff’s aircraft, since they’ve got simpler systems modeling, and then move to higher fidelity simulations?Īre WW2 era aircraft easier to deal with than modern fighters, since they’ve got less going on in the cockpit? I’m leaning towards targeting DCS World as a goal instead of Il-2 since I grew up reading about P-51s and P-38s followed by F-14s and am more interested in flying over Normandy than Stalingrad.Heron's tactics throughout the three-day competition, such as an "aggressive gun maneuver," gave them the upper hand, Javorsek said during a live-stream on YouTube.
Past that it’s basically make your own fun. Currently flying around the Bay Area in a Cessna :-)Īny suggestions on things I should try in Aerofly to get myself ready to fly in DCS World? There is a set of flight instructor tasks which have been very helpful, but they’re very limited. I picked up a copy of Aerofly and have a HOTAS setup coming in from Amazon in a few days. I haven’t tried it myself so I don’t know how good it is.Īerofly Fs2 could also be a good choice, especially if you just want to fly around beautiful mountains and stuff. If you’re interested in world war I flying there is also some options to use them in the il-2 engine however it’s still in early stages of development so you may want to wait for that to be better developed.įor civilian flight sims you may want to read reviews about this one:
IL2 AIR COMBAT MANEUVERS HOW TO
This channel (air combat school by requiem): will give you a lot of instructions on how to fly particular aircraft and how to land, etc. The il-2 forums have a section on VR and guides on getting good performance.
You get a lot better performance if you turn off the HUD in game though, and you may need to read a guide on best settings for VR - you want to shoot for that sweet spot of 90 fps for maximum vr comfort. There is a bit of jank with il-2 for VR, like the menu system phasing in and out during loading, but once you’re in game and in the air it’s pretty good. You can set up progressively more difficult 1 on 1 air duels with enemy fighters. You can pick it up on steam or buy it from the 777 studios webpage. If you’re looking for combat I’d say go with Il-2: battle of stalingrad.
