Full Combat Mission Training

Abstract

Full Combat Mission Training (FCMT) supports Air Force Distributed Mission Operations (DMO), Live-Synthetic Blended and Joint Simulation Environment (JSE) integration. FCMT funding provides research in areas benefiting the DMO/LVC environment and the Air Force JSE enterprise. It also provides research and development to facilitate integration of fielded and newly acquired Air Force owned training devices into DMO/LVC networks and JSE; 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 and develops, demonstrates, and inserts Multi-Level Security (MLS) capability. This capability enables warfighters to exercise and train at the operational and strategic levels of war, conduct networked unit-level training at home station and high-end test and training at joint test and training sites. This program element may include necessary civilian pay expenses required to manage, execute, and deliver weapon system capability. The use of such program funds would be in addition to the civilian pay expenses budgeted in program element 0605827F, 0605828F, 0605829F, 0605831F, 0605832F, 0605833F, 0605898F, 0606398F. In FY22 0.0M was expended for civilian pay expenses in this program element. FY23 0.0M is forecasted for civilian pay expenses in this program element. 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.
