IRREGULAR WARFARE (IW)

Abstract

This research and development effort closes training gaps at the tactical and operational level and ensures the General Purpose Forces (GPF) receive relevant immersive, pre-deployment training equal to that provided to Special Forces. This effort researches, develops and integrates combat immersive human terrain/cueing/profiling training, security force assistance training, counter threat finance training, virtual predator integration testing and training, asymmetric warfare improvised explosive device defeat training, improved mission rehearsal exercise after action review capability,, and distributed training technologies to provide irregular warfare training for the GPF. As part of a national effort, irregular warfare functional training research and development integrates and leverages academic, COCOM, Interagency, Joint, and Service initiatives and hybrid threat tactical and technical ground, aviation and maritime subject matter expertise to improve the combat performance of expeditionary forces in complex operating environments. Joint National Training Center irregular warfare research and development avoids duplicative efforts and achieves integration and synergetic training effects through coordination efforts within an irregular warfare community of interest in order to convert current operational practices, human, cultural and social science schools of thought, as well as state of the art virtual and constructive modeling and simulation capabilities to increase the combat proficiency and survival of jointforces across the full spectrum of warfare.
