BMDS Simulations & Tools

Abstract

This activity funds the development and sustainment of digital products and the architecture framework, and delivery/maintenance of infrastructure for BMDS performance assessments, Warfighter events, and BMD International Simulation events. The following actions are required on a continuing basis: Event Integration/Support Operations: - Provide ground test architecture integration to meet IMTP requirements. Use the BMDS test framework to integrate distributed architectures in support of BMDS capability deployments for EPAA Phase 3. - Integrate, test, and verify the M&S enterprise supporting BMDS testing, assessment, exercises, and wargaming, including testing infrastructure. - Integrate, test, functionally qualify, and deliver M&S tools and complex test architectures to provide system test capabilities to support MDA IMTP based test events, wargames, and exercises. - Continue the transition of real-time digital simulation capability to OSF to support Intended Uses. - Maintain simulations for Element M&S development laboratories used in the BMDS Integration & Development Lab and Digital M&S Integration Center (DMIC) in Huntsville, AL and in the MDIOC Simulation Center. - Conduct integration, testing and system-level verification per the digital System Requirements Document (SRD). Operate the testbed to mature the OSF-based digital system simulation. - Provide Event Integration Support for BMDS component models of PATRIOT weapon system for use in MDA test and validation events. - Provide HWIL/M&S benchmarking/integration, documentation and coordination. Sustain, integrate and execute ground tests, FAST Events and Exercises/Wargames. - Provide communications emulation (MTJ, STJ, and Link-16) and network analysis support via the Tactical Communications Environment Segment (TCES) for use in IMTP events, HWIL System Post Flight Reconstructions (SPFRs) and HWIL System Pre Mission Tests (SPMTs). - Perform operational planning for planned BMDS assessment events. - Conduct M&S system integration and verification to support M&S system architecture development. Conduct developmental integration testing. M&S Operations: - Provide digital representations of BMDS elements/components using MDA's BMD International Simulation (I-SIM) in support of CCMD and International Wargames, conceptual planning, BMD visualizations, BMD training/orientation, M&S demonstrations, and the Warfighter's Modification & Fielding Requirements List (MFRL) for exercises and training. - Implement I-SIM re-architecture requirements and emerging requirements such as IAMD/Fog of War to adapt to growing distributed event requirements. - Maintain the Missile Defense Space Warning Tool (MDST) to keep pace with fielded BMDS Overhead Persistent Infrared (OPIR) Architectures in support of Warfighter training events, BMDS exercise events, and BMDS development engineering. - Provide software operations/maintenance support to the Extended Air Defense Simulation (EADSIM) code base for use in Warfighter exercises, training venues, and CCMD planning tools. - Upgrade legacy models and develop new designs or software as required to support BMDS simulation Re-Architecture. - Provide threat representations (kinematic trajectories, radar cross sections, and infrared signatures data) for use in real-world events, simulations, exercises, wargames, and test and evaluation activities across the DoD. Specific and/or unique accomplishments to each FY are as follows:
