Abstract

This paper evaluates an advanced jet trainer's utilization of artificial intelligence (AI)-based aircraft aerobatic maneuvers with the intention of developing an AI-assisted pilot training module for specific aircraft maneuvers. A multitude of aircraft maneuvers have been simulated using reinforcement learning (RL) agents, which will serve as a training tool for future pilots.
