Revolutionary AI for DCS World

IASER (Intelligent Air & Surface External Runtime) brings dynamic campaigns, persistent battlefields, and advanced AI behaviors to DCS World through an external high-performance C++ engine.

Revolutionary Features

Transform your DCS World experience with cutting-edge AI technology

Dynamic Campaign

Persistent campaigns that evolve based on mission outcomes. Every action has lasting consequences on the strategic situation.

Advanced AI

Sophisticated tactical and strategic AI behaviors for air, ground, and naval units with realistic combat maneuvers.

Persistent Battlefield

Battlefield state persists between missions. Destroyed bridges, damaged airbases, and unit positions are saved and restored.

Mission Generation

Dynamic mission creation based on campaign state. Automated SEAD, Strike, CAP, and CAS mission planning.

High Performance

External C++ engine ensures minimal impact on DCS performance while supporting thousands of dynamic entities.

Real-time Integration

Seamless real-time communication with DCS World through optimized UDP/TCP protocols at 30+ Hz.
