Research and evaluation were conducted to determine if an adaptive maneuvering target could be utilized for air-to-air combat simulation in the Large Amplitude Multimode Aerospace Research Simulator (LAMARS). A computer program was developed, based on Quest Corporation's Smart Target, which enabled the target to make tactical decisions based on aircraft states, make variations in decision parameters corresponding to differences in pilots, and to provide control inputs to fly actual air combat maneuvers. Validation of the simulated target was accomplished by numerous test runs to ensure simulated maneuvers were realistic, and continuity between maneuvers at different pilot skill levels was valid.
