DRG-MAPPO: Hierarchical Dynamic Role-Graph Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Cooperative Air Combat
DRG-MAPPO combines graph-based relational modeling with dynamic role assignment in multi-agent RL, reaching an 87% win rate in cooperative air combat.
The hierarchical framework uses graph attention to extract relational features among allies, enemies, and threats, with a high-level policy assigning tactical roles like leader and supporter. A low-level policy executes discrete maneuver actions conditioned on roles and graph features, plus a target-priority auxiliary task encouraging focus-fire behavior. Experiments report a state-of-the-art 87% win rate, balancing relational modeling, interpretability, and optimization stability.
- Graph attention captures time-varying battlefield interactions
- Dynamic role assignment covers leader and supporter tactics
- Target-priority auxiliary task fosters focus-fire behavior
- Achieves 87% win rate in cooperative air combat scenarios

Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) has emerged as a pivotal paradigm for complex decision-making in autonomous systems and air combat. While MARL has demonstrated significant potential in air combat, achieving sophisticated tactical coordination remains a non-trivial challenge.
