[0050] The definable air combat simulation platform designed by the present invention can find corresponding mission models in each sub-model library of the model library module of the simulation platform according to the user's needs, and combine the various mission models to quickly construct the virtual air combat scenario proposed by the user, so as to verify the effectiveness of the aircraft, its weapons and equipment, and tactical deployments.

[0051] Embodiment 2:

[0052] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, this embodiment provides a method for constructing a definable air combat simulation scenario based on a model. This embodiment uses the air combat simulation platform provided in Embodiment 1 to construct an air combat simulation scenario for the combat mission requirements proposed by the user.

[0053] The method for constructing a definable air combat simulation scenario includes the following steps:

[0054] S1. The user proposes air combat mission requirements.

[0055] S2. Based on the combat mission requirements, conduct mission planning and edit to generate a virtual air combat scenario to be simulated.

[0056] S3. Based on the virtual air combat scenario to be simulated, judge whether there is an air combat simulation scenario in the model library module that matches the virtual air combat scenario to be simulated. If not, execute step S4; if so, execute step S5.

[0057] S4. Develop a new mission model corresponding to the virtual air combat scenario to be simulated, store the new mission model in the model library module, update the model library module, and execute step S5.

[0058] Specifically, the method for updating the model library module is:

[0059] First, analyze the virtual air combat scenario to be simulated to generate combat information, and the combat information includes geographical environment information, equipment information, single aircraft type information, and may also include mission information, combat time information, etc.

[0060] Secondly, develop corresponding new mission models according to the combat information, and store the new mission models in the model library module to complete the update of the model library module.

[0061] It should be noted here that when developing a new mission model, first, each combat information needs to be compared with the mission models in each sub-model library, and only the mission models in the sub-model library that do not correspond to the combat information are constructed to form a new mission model; and the original sub-model library (i.e., the model library module 200) is updated.

[0062] S5. Call the mission model from the model library module to generate a simulated air combat scenario required by the user and complete the construction of the air combat simulation scenario.

[0063] S6. Perform simulation operations on the simulated air combat scenario, output simulation data, display the changes in the combat situation, and complete the simulation of the air combat scenario required by the user.

[0064] In an improved embodiment of the definable air combat simulation scenario construction method, in order to analyze different simulated air combat scenarios proposed by the user and judge the effectiveness of the algorithm, the effectiveness of weapons and equipment, and the effectiveness of tactical command, the definable air combat simulation scenario construction method further includes step S7, that is, evaluating the simulation results of the air combat scenario.

[0065] The principle of the definable air combat simulation scenario construction method is as follows: First, generate a simulated air combat scenario to be imitated according to the actual needs of the user; then, in the simulation platform, compare and judge the model library module of the simulation platform according to the simulated air combat scenario. If there is a corresponding air combat simulation scenario in the model library module, directly combine and construct the air combat simulation scenario required by the user from the model library module. If there is no corresponding air combat simulation scenario, construct a new mission model in the simulation platform to update the original model library module, and then generate the air combat simulation scenario required by the user; finally, perform simulation operations and display the changes in the combat situation according to the constructed air combat simulation scenario to complete the simulation process of the air combat scenario required by the user. The construction method designed by the present invention can conveniently and quickly construct complex and diverse air combat simulation scenarios that meet the needs of users, and can provide effective data support for research on improving the performance of aircraft weapons and equipment, tactical command, and the effectiveness of algorithms.

[0066] The following takes the typical OODA (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act) as an example to illustrate the above definable air combat simulation scenario construction method:

[0067] 1. The user proposes an air combat mission: The combat airspace range is 400km * 400km, with the battlefield center at the origin of coordinates. The positive x-axis is to the right, and the positive y-axis is upward. Both the red and blue sides dispatch 1 manned aircraft and 1 unmanned aircraft. The unmanned aircraft conducts patrols in the established airspace. After the radar detects a target, it immediately reports the detection result to the manned aircraft, and the manned aircraft immediately takes off from the airport to strike the target. The combat result is determined by damage adjudication.

[0068] 2. Conduct scenario design through the scenario editing module 100:

[0069] The manned aircraft consists of an aircraft single model, a missile model, and an interference model;

[0070] The unmanned aircraft consists of an aircraft single model and a radar model;

[0071] The air combat area consists of a geographical landscape model and an atmospheric model.

[0072] 3. Construct an air combat simulation scenario:

[0073] Analyze the composition structure of each entity in 2, construct new task models that are not in each sub-model library to update the model library module 200, and call the corresponding task models in each sub-model library (each model can set different parameters for convenient comparative analysis of experimental results) to assemble into entities, and assign the task relationships between entities, that is, complete the construction of the air combat simulation scenario.

[0074] 4. Simulation run

[0075] Load different intelligent algorithms from the intelligent algorithm library module 300, and the simulation platform starts to run.

[0076] 5. Display and evaluation analysis

[0077] According to the deduction data, the comprehensive display module outputs the changes in the combat situation.

[0078] According to the experimental results, generate analysis reports on aircraft, weapons and equipment, and tactical deployments, providing theoretical support for users to adjust and improve the plan.

[0079] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.

[0080] In addition, it should be understood that although this specification is described according to embodiments, not every embodiment only contains an independent technical solution. This narrative way of the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
