A combat pilot system for an aircraft comprises corresponding combat pilot devices &prime; provided in a runtime module on board the aircraft and a ground-based system training module respectively. The run-time module &prime; is trained using model data generated simulation model as well as feedback data from actual missile firings. The matrix of weights derived from the training routines are then programmed into the neural network in the corresponding combat pilot aid system on board the aircraft so that the runtime module is capable of processing the input data producing the four parameters required for launch of a missile and also a FIRE/NO FIRE indication to the pilot.
