Royal Air Force of Oman taps DRDO cognitive tech – CPSS – to pick next generation of fighter pilots
The Computerised Pilot Selection System (CPSS) is an advanced assessment and screening framework developed by DRDO — specifically through the Defence Institute of Psychological Research (DIPR) and the Aeronautical Development Establishment (ADE). By deploying advanced assessment methods, the software provides a precise, reliable framework for pinpointing high-potential aviators before they ever step into a cockpit. It combines computer-based cognitive testing (measuring multitasking, information processing, speed, and accuracy) with a psychomotor testing sub-system (simulating a cockpit environment where candidates operate flight controls like joysticks, rudders, and throttles under pressure).
