BVR Sim: An Open and High-Throughput Environment for Heterogeneous Air-Combat Reinforcement Learning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 26, 2026 · UTC

Beyond-visual-range (BVR) air combat is a challenging reinforcement-learning domain characterized by partial observability, long-horizon decision making, energy management, and limited weapons. We present BVR Sim, an open-source Gymnasium-style environment designed for heterogeneous air-combat reinforcement learning. BVR Sim supports multiple JSBSim aircraft models, including the F-15, F-16, F/A-18, and F-22, with configurable weapons, sensors, controllers, and opponents. A unified tactical action interface specifies desired heading, altitude, speed, and weapon release above aircraft-specific
