Embedded Training in the Polaris SSBN Missile Fire Control System
Abstract
Embedded training is a special facility built into operational equipment to permit its use for training purposes. This report provides a retrospective summary of the use of an embedded training facility in the Polaris Submarine Missile Fire Control System. A special embedded device, the Training Alarm Controllers (TAC) console, used in conjunction with the fire control console and other operational equipment, permits the fire control team to rehearse missile countdown, including procedures for dealing with fault conditions, under realistic conditions during long sea patrols as a supplement to training on shore-based simulations.
