Intelligent Autopilot Based on Agent-Oriented Programming

Thesis aims at fighter combat and maneuvring - so called Dogfighting. The purpose of this work is to create intelligent autopilot based on Agent system, eligible of executing in-air maneuvers and tactics in real-time simulation. In the first part, theoretical basis of air combat will be introduced, such as weapon systems, maneuvring and tactics in mutual combat 1 on 1, odds fight 2 on 1, and last but not least mass fights. Also agent programming will be introduced, as well as recognizing of agent rules and processes and its transformation to agent language. The second part describes building of a simple graphical simulation environment based on JMonkey game engine. Agent system maintaining every single aircraft within the simulation will be created and own network socket protocol for communication between intelligent behavior and simulation environment will be discussed and documented
