ETE Update: ADS Testing of C4ISR Systems

Abstract

The End-To-End (ETE) Test, conducted under the auspices of the Department of Defense Joint Advanced Distributed Simulation (JADS) Joint Test and Evaluation (JT&E), is currently developing a synthetic test environment that can be used for future operational testing and doctrinal development. This synthetic test environment will be used initially to conduct developmental and operational testing of the Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (Joint STARS). As designed and built, it may be used to conduct future testing of systems such as the Common Ground Station (CGS), the All Source Analysis System (ASAS), and the Block II Army Tactical Missile System. This paper will describe progress to date, to include the results of our initial operational and developmental tests, lessons learned to date, and experience gained in verifying and validating a synthetic test environment using the Department of Defense Verification, Validation and Accreditation (VV&A) Recommended Practices Guide.
