CAE and Leonardo are taking military aviation training to the next level by developing advanced preparation systems for future fighter pilots operating the M-346 Master aircraft.The expanded agreement focuses on combining real flight experience with virtual environments and computer-generated scenarios, allowing pilots to train for complex missions before entering operational units.The companies aim to create training solutions that prepare aviators for future battlefields where artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and highly networked aircraft will become increasingly important.Building on their work at the International Flight Training School in Italy, CAE and Leonardo are developing a next-generation training ecosystem designed to improve pilot readiness, adaptability, and mission effectiveness.The program also supports Canada’s future aviation requirements after selecting the M-346 as its advanced jet training aircraft for preparing pilots before transitioning to modern fighter platforms.
