Non-System Training Devices - Eng Dev

Abstract

Program Element funds development of Non-System Training Devices to support force-on-force training at the Combat Training Centers (CTC), general military training, and training on more than one item/system, as compared with system devices which are developed in support of a specific item/weapon system. Army training devices and training simulations contribute to the modernization of the forces by enabling readiness and strengthening combat effectiveness through realistic training solutions for the Warfighter. Training devices maximize the transfer of knowledge, skills, and experience from the training situation to a combat situation. Force-on-force training at the National Training Center (NTC), Ft. Irwin, CA; Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC), Ft. Polk, LA, and Joint Multinational Readiness Center (JMRC), formerly the Combat Maneuver Training Center (CMTC), Hohenfels, Germany; and battle staff training in Battle Command Training Program (BCTP) provide increased combat readiness through realistic collective training in low, mid, and high intensity scenarios. Project 241, Non-System Training Devices-Combined Arms, develops simulation training devices for Army-wide use, including the CTCs. FY 2021 Project 241 funds significant development efforts in support of U.S. Army Training and Readiness on the Combat Training Center Instrumentation Systems (CTC-IS), Instrumentable-Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System (I-MILES), Home Station Instrumentation Training System (HITS), Common Training Instrumentation Architecture (CTIA), OPFOR Integrated Air Defense System (IADS), Digital Range Training System (DRTS), Target Modernization, Medical Simulation Training Center (MSTC), Basic Electronics Maintenance Trainer (BEMT), Live, Virtual, Constructive Integrating Architecture (LVC-IA), Combat Training Center Live Fire Modernization (CTC Live Fire Mod) new start, and OPFOR Attack Aircraft Shoot-back Capability (OA2SBC) new start. FY 2020 funding for Suicide Prevention is realigned to PE 0605013A project FL9. FY 2020 funding for Soldier/Squad Virtual Trainer Program (S/SVT) is realigned to PE 0604121A, Project SV1. On 21 April 2019, the Future Army System of Integrated Targets (FASIT) Capability Production Document was approved. After the FASIT program is formally established, it will subsume the following programs: Combat Training Center Live Fire Modernization (CTC Live Fire Mod), Target Modernization, and Army Targetry Systems (ATS).
