Advanced Distributed Simulation Technology II (ADST-II) Digital Collective Training Study Final Report

Abstract

This report presents the results of the Digital Collective Training Study, which identifies requirements for the Advanced Distributed Simulation Technology II (AD ST II) Program in support of evolving digital battle staff training needs These requirements are derived from a Digital Collective Training (DCT) approach, which leverages fielded and emerging digital systems to provide a modular, low cost, low risk DCT course of action. The intent of DCT is to allow parallel development of C41 systems, training and doctrine and distributed simulation systems that result in a flexible and tailorable training tool. An implementation plan for a Digital Battle staff Sustainment Trainer (DBST) driver based on a federation of CCTT SAF and OTB SAF is proposed for train up and execution of the Division Capstone Exercise (DCX) at Fort Hood, Texas. This implementation plan includes a blueprint, support environment, initial capability, and a simulation support concept which best support digital staff training for DCX. Critical DBST functionality required to support DCX includes 1) incorporation of a confederation of CCTT SAF and ModSAF/OneSAF Testbed as a ground maneuver driver in a Digital Battle staff Sustainment Trainer (DBST) for DCX train up from November 1999 through March 2001 and 2) use of a confederated CCTT SAF and ModSAF 5.0/OneSAF Testbed maneuver model as a Low Overhead Drive for a Staff COFt in the CCTTTOC facility during DCX in March 2001.
