Counter Improvised-Threat Simulation
Abstract
The Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Counter Improvised-Threat Simulation Advanced Technology Development program element funds Technology Outreach as well as development of modeling-and-simulation and analysis support tools that enhance counter-improvised explosive devices (C-IED) and counter improvised threat (C-IT) efforts. Enable Rapid Capability Delivery. Understanding the threat drives a DTRA-JIDO deliberate, structured, and proactive approach to identify and validate urgent or emergent capability gaps and requirements. JIDO's continuous embedded presence with deployed U.S. Joint Forces enables early identification and understanding of C-IED and C-IT gaps, vulnerabilities, and risks and the timely validation, resourcing, development, and delivery of C-IED and C-IT material and non-material solutions. DTRA-JIDO technical integrators embedded with deployed forces further enables rapid adjustments to solutions as the threat’s adaptation evolves.
