Intelligence Simulation Systems
Abstract
This program element funds the development of constructive and wargame simulations used to realistically train commanders and their battle staffs on today's complex battlefield conditions. Project 361 funds the development of the Intelligence Electronic Warfare Tactical Proficiency Trainer (IEWTPT). IEWTPT is a Non-System Training Device (NTSD) which supports training intelligence soldiers by simulating and stimulating Military Intelligence (MI) organic or surrogate equipment. It enables sustainment of critical individual and collective tasks/skills and is the core of the United States Army Intelligence Center of Excellence (USAICoE) Military Intelligence (MI) holistic training strategy and includes both stand-alone and network enabled training capabilities. IEWTPT provides a realistic Intelligence target environment for Multi-Intelligence disciplines such as Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), Imagery Intelligence (IMINT), Human Intelligence (HUMINT), Counterintelligence (CI), Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT) and must stimulate and emulate multiple Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) platform systems such as: PROPHET, Distributed Common Ground Station-Army (DCGS-A), Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System-Common Ground Station (JSTARS-CGS), Tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (TUAV), Tactical Exploitation System/Distributed Tactical Exploitation System (TES/DTES), and Aerial Intelligence assets such as Enhanced Medium Altitude Reconnaissance and Surveillance System (EMARSS), Airborne Reconnaissance Low-Enhanced (ARL-E), and Guardrail Common Sensor (GRCS). IEWTPT provides static and dynamic training capabilities (interactive environment for individual, collective, and Live, Virtual, and Constructive integrated mission rehearsals/exercises utilizing a constructive simulation feed) in an integrated, playback, and stand-alone mode. IEWTPT is composed of three major components: Technical Control Cell (TCC), Target Signature Arrays (TSA) or Simulation Interface, and the HUMINT Control Cell (HCC). The IEWTPT TCC provides critical Intel enhancements to a constructive simulation to stimulate go-to-war or surrogate ISR systems where system operators/analysts are able to exploit exercise intelligence data during training, just as they would in a "real world" operation. FY 2018 funding in the amount of $6.334 million supports U.S. Army readiness by developing interface capabilities with Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) platform programs/systems of record to train detailed military intelligence mission essential tasks in a simulation environment. FY 2018 funds provide the development of web-enabled capabilities and common operating environment/computing environment (COE/CE) migration for Command Post, Sensor, and Data Center for both the Human Control Cell (HCC) and Technical Control Cell (TCC).
