Air Component Support to Joint Exercises

Abstract

The use of computer simulations to create the environment for joint exercises has increased dramatically over the last decade. Since the Gulf War it has become apparent that a change in the dynamics of warfare is underway. In what some describe as a revolution in military affairs, joint warfighting is characterized by compressed planning cycles, precision weapons, and vastly greater battlefield awareness. This highly active, technology-driven atmosphere creates unique challenges for exercise planners. Unlike the scripted, paper-driven exercises of the past, computer simulation has become a must.
