Fielding Plan or Schedule
Just completed a very productive MRF-W v5.5 VE and ORE at the NSC and BCTC/BCTP
The MRF-W VE/ORE provided the best operational environment to date to "stress and shake-out" the system to ensure readiness for Army DIV WFXs.
During the VE, the federation availability was 98% with an overall requirements pass rate of an impressive 85%
During the ORE, the System was solid and available 100% the first 60 hrs before encountering the first period of down time; final availability was 91.8%
Conducted four Analysis Events at Fort Huachuca to compare their current simulation systems to WARSIM’s capabilities:
WARSIM interfaced/stimulated DGCS-A v3.0.1
Verified/updated Intel sensors parametric data/capability
Demonstrated interface with IEWTPT
Upon addressing any outstanding gaps, Fort Huachuca plans to use WARSIM for their school house training exercises
Aug 09: Complete v5.5 MRF-W fielding to the NSC and BCTP

13. It is always about the Warfighter. That is why we exist
It is always about the Warfighter. That is why we exist. We have to get it right. We have to remember the past. We have to plan for the future. Today’s band of brothers will one day become the band of brothers from bygone days. When the reunions and conversations are held 40 years from these days, what do you think they will talk about?
Will they say they had the right training? Will they say they had the right training devices, and simulations? Will they say they needed more?
Thanks again for having me here.

18. Elements of Live Virtual Constructive
Integration of Battle Command:
Real world tactical systems used in the training environment.
Emphasis on the shared solutions will be re-stated with AVCATT to provide speed of development, savings, and integration of new modules and training capability.
Slide Description:
Now that the benefits of integrating the LVC and BC systems have been explained, it is important to note that there are many underlying technologies to include processes, components, data, standards and architectures that are necessary to enable interoperability. PEO STRI is pioneering the effort towards commonality with the Live, Virtual and Constructive training domains to include an LVC integrating architecture. Simulation architectures such as the Product Line Architecture Framework (PLAF) approach is just one example of these types of initiatives.
Talking Points:
Over time PEO STRI is bringing the Live, Virtual and Constructive domains closer together to facilitate interoperability and integration (I2). This is a current effort for both the test and training activities. The linking of multiple test or training domains provides for an expanded synthetic battlespace and ability to train or test with reduced costs, manpower or other resources.
LVC-ITE provides the required common protocols, specifications, standards and interfaces to permit interoperability and integration among LVC components along with Army and Joint Command, Control, Communications, Computer, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems. The LVC-ITE enables LVC TADSS, Live Training Transformation-Family of Training Systems (LT2-FTS), Synthetic Environment (SE) Core, and Joint Land Component Constructive Training Capability (JLCCTC) to interoperate with Joint National Training Capability (JNTC), Service, and Combatant Command (COCOM) LVC systems while stimulating Army and Joint C4ISR systems. The LVC-ITE supports DoD Training Transformation (T2) by providing an on-demand, distributed LVC training, mission planning and rehearsal environment with Joint context.
Enabling Technologies:
Each of the training domains provide unique complementary capabilities to the entire LVC training environment.

19. Current State of Modeling and Simulation for Training
LIVE
Slide Description:
Traditionally the integration of Live, Virtual, and Constructive training assets for the Army has been minimal at best. The three training domains, Live, Virtual, and Constructive, function on their own planes of execution meeting the training requirements they were designed for. This diagram shows the existence of the three training focus areas represented by the red plane for Live, the black plane for Virtual, and the white plane for Constructive. The chess pieces shown on each plane represent the training assets themselves and components of those assets.
Talking Points:
A training process is an activity that is clear, insightful, logical and focused on the result to be achieved. The concept is hierarchical which means that a training process may contain a set(s) of sub-processes.  Training processes have a purpose, structure, rationale and role in Army Training.  Training processes are tailored to fit unit requirements and managed by unit commanders.  Training processes provide continuity and stability to Army Training.  The three primary training processes are: Live, Virtual and Constructive Training. However, Gaming and Embedded training applications are now being explored to augment our current portfolio of L, V, C assets.

SITE [proposed TBD (PM TRASYS)]
: The Future Immersive Training Environment [FITE] Joint Capability Technology Demonstration [JCTD] is PEO STRI’s most recent undertaking to improve the combat readiness of U.S. forces operating in irregular warfare environments. As a team member in the new U.S. Joint Forces Command led FITE JCTD effort, PEO STRI will help create realistic, fully immersive training environments that prepare warfighters for irregular warfare-oriented tasks. The FITE JCTD will spin off capabilities that can potentially enhance existing service programs. One of these is our Dismounted Soldier virtual train ing system, which will prepare warfighters for full-spectrum operations in the contemporary operating environment. The system will allow Army leaders to choose from a wide selection of terrain databases and train their troops in complex urban environments. Soldiers can dismount from vehicles or aircraft and train for full-spectrum operations, including tasks that are complex or high risk in a live environment. A dismounted soldier can engage targets with doctrinally assigned weapons, move in doctrinally correct formations and communicate with unit personnel. Dismounted Soldier is a future capability, but PEO STRI is already doing much in the way of training our forces for irregular warfare. One example is DARWARS Ambush!, a PCbased gaming system that provides soldiers with a platform for training cognitive skills in tactical decision-making and communication. Originally created as a networked convoy trainer, DARWARS has been modified to train non-kinetic skills to include cultural awareness.
