Modular Air Combat Environment (MACE) is a Windows desktop application that simulates real-time air combat and supports post-combat debriefing. MACE incorporates hi-fidelity missile simulations to generate feedback on authentic cockpit displays. A flight simulator allows “first person shooter” action. A “third person viewer” mode lets the user fly through the 3D Combat Theater in a HyperCopter during a scenario or after the scenario has completed.

Instructor Guide
The IOS is the main simulation control point supporting the instructor's role in simulator training. The IOS initializes/configures the attached STSs, conducts training scenarios, digitally assesses student performance, maintains student records, and maintains scenarios and approved curriculum.
