Adversary Air
Created in an effort to bring cost-effective training support to the Benelux countries and the Nordics, the AEC SKYLINE-TOP ACES team fields a large number of second to none adversary air (or “red air”) assets piloted by highly qualified, former fighter pilots. This unique combination allows us to replicate the latest near-peer air-to-air threat, at scale.
Our cutting edge ADAIR platforms feature the open architecture Advanced Aggressor Mission System (AAMS) which includes a modern Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar, Infrared Search and Track (IRST) sensor systems combined with Helmet Mounted Cueing System (HMCS) and tactical datalink capability. An advanced electronic attack pod can also be added.

A-4 Skyhawk
The A-4N Skyhawk is a proven platform that can cope with a large variety of missions including the provision of adversary air training. When equipped with the latest mission systems that are part of TOP ACES’ proprietary AAMS suite, this trusted jet aircraft is capable of simulating the advanced capabilities of contemporary near-peer air-to-air combat opponents.
F-16 Fighting Falcon
Also known as Viper, the single engined, supersonic F-16 remains one of the world’s most iconic fighter aircraft and is still being used in large numbers around the world. However, TOP ACES is unique in being the sole private company that operates the mighty F-16 for contract air purposes, with operations still being confined to North America.
By integrating the AAMS suite with its up to date, 5th Generation mission systems, these privately operated F-16s have been turned into proper 4.5 Gen combat aircraft while at the same time keeping the renowned agility of the legacy Viper. Furthermore, these F-16s are air-to-air refuelling capable, thereby further enhancing their training value during large force employment exercises.
