A developer has created a hybrid AI system for aerial combat simulation, combining classical pathfinding algorithms with deep reinforcement learning. This approach uses a path planner for routine navigation and switches to a reinforcement learning agent when a threat, like a missile, is detected. The project, built in Unity and trained over 5 million steps, demonstrates the effectiveness of using specialized AI techniques for different aspects of complex tasks. AI
