Meeting the Warfighter’s Interoperability Requirements Thank you General Rajczak, and thank you to all those responsible for assembling this MILCOM gathering. You have chosen a topic for this panel I consider very important. In fact it mirrors my mission statement for PEO STRI - “To provide responsive Acquisition Life-cycle Management focusing on interoperable training, testing, and simulation solutions for the Warfighters and the nation.” Dr. Jim Blake Program Executive Officer PEO STRI MILCOM 2007 29 October 2007

The Problem We cannot afford the current vector for the future. The Solution Who really knows? The future keeps changing – BUT – some things are clear…

The Past Very limited interoperability within and across domains L - MILES V - CCTT C - JTC, ALSP STOW - E, STOW - A

(IHITS, CCTT, AVCATT, JCATS) The Present Some isolated improvements - Persistence L - IHITS, MILES V - CCTT C - JLCCTC (Multi-service) ERF, MRF-C, MRF-W Korea (IHITS, CCTT, AVCATT, JCATS)

The Present – Interoperability Matrix WARSIM CTC OIS CSSTSS TACSIM IEWTPT ONESAF CBS CBS CSSTSS TACSIM IEWTPT ONESAF WARSIM CTC OIS 178 x 178 Matrix Both simulations have Requirement to interoperate and work is in progress Both simulations have Requirement but no work has been done yet Both simulations have Requirement to interoperate and they are currently fully interoperable Only 1 of the simulations has reported Requirement to interoperate

Standards and Protocols The Future High value interoperability targets Plans L - CTIA – TENA V - SE Core C - JLCCTC - MRF-W Standards and Protocols JNTC JAAR Automated behaviors Tools Reduced number of models Reduced number of components (AARs, C4 Adapter, translators, gateways) Faster set up Timely modifications Better Soldier acceptance Reduced “tie guys” – it takes an army to train a few Leads to

How We Get There Internal analysis (matrix) I2AB – Highly persistent capability hardened over time Highly leveraged investments System and non-system oversight Collaboration with JFCOM and JWFC Test and Training interaction Common APIs, DIFs, & Protocols DIS, HLA Common Components C4I Adapter, SNE, AAR, Scenario Generation Architectures CTIA, VSA, OneSAF Gunnery Trainers, Staff Trainers, Virtual Trainers Interoperable Applications

Mission First, People Always!
