Full Combat Mission Training

Abstract

Full Combat Mission Training (FCMT) supports Air Force Distributed Mission Operations (DMO) and Live-Virtual-Constructive (LVC) integration. DMO is an operational readiness initiative enabling the USAF to exercise and train at the operational and strategic levels of war while facilitating unit-level training. FCMT funding provides research in areas benefiting the AF DMO/LVC environment as a whole. Provides research and development to facilitate integration of fielded and newly acquired, Air Force owned training devices into DMO/LVC networks. Enhances the quality of training for the systems added to the network. Enables aircrews to network with LVC components to form the integrated DMO battlespace. Links geographically distributed high-fidelity combat and combat support training devices including Command and Control and Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance systems. Develops, demonstrates and inserts multi-level security capability. This capability allows the warfighters at home station to exercise and train at the operational and strategic levels of war as well as conduct networked unit-level training. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver Full Combat Mission Training capabilities. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605831F. This program is in Budget Activity 5, System Development and Demonstration (SDD) because it has passed Milestone B approval and is conducting engineering and manufacturing development tasks aimed at meeting validated requirements prior to full rate production.
