Representing the Combat Engineer Functioning Land Combat Models: Lessons Learned
Abstract
The Engineer Model Improvement Program (EMIP) was established in 1988 as a comprehensive effort to ensure that engineers are properly represented in the Army's land combat models. The focus of EMIP was to enhance the engineer representation in the Vector-In-Commander (VIC) battle simulation. During the past 2 years, a new engineer module was designed and developed to replace VIC's original representation of the combat engineer functional area. This report documents the lessons learned about modeling the combat engineer functional area, combining the important elements of the VIC project with U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratories experience from several earlier engineer enhancement efforts. The lessons presented here concern land combat models in general as well as combat engineer modeling.
