World’s only privately owned F-16 gets invisible AI wingman that exists only in code.
Top Aces, the sole commercial operator of F-16 aircraft specialized in advanced air combat training, has made a significant announcement that could reshape the adversary air (ADAIR) sector.
In partnership with EpiSci, Coherent Technical Services Inc. (CTSi), and Seger Aviation LLC, the company has introduced a novel AI-driven autonomous constructive wingman customized for the Red Air industry.
This innovation is intended to simulate sophisticated adversary aircraft's flight characteristics and maneuvers within a live-virtual-constructive (LVC) training framework.

Russ Quinn, the President of Top Aces Corp., who brings experience as a U.S. Air Force veteran and former Aggressor pilot, commented on the development.
“The launch of a constructive wingman is a significant step forward and represents a new standard in the ADAIR field. By incorporating AI-driven wingmen, we aim to enhance training effectiveness, creating more complex and challenging scenarios for Beyond Visual Range (BVR) targeting. At the same time, this feature allows pilots to train against live, agile 4th Generation fighters,” he stated.
