Simulation Roadmap for Program Executive Office (PEO) Soldier
Abstract
Maintaining an edge during this time of unprecedented technological growth requires that the Army field Infantry soldier systems quickly. The risk of doing so without some assessment of utility, however, is quite high, and the acquisition community must estimate the operational impact of proposed systems with an increasing degree of accuracy. For this, the Army has turned to combat simulations. However, the representation of the individual soldier in simulations has not kept pace with other representations. We applied the systems engineering process to support the needs of the Infantry soldier system acquisition community' by identifying the best path forward to utilize and/or develop simulation capabilities that' meet program manager's needs. Our recommendation was that PEO Soldier pursue the enhancement of' and linkage between Combat(XXI), the Infantry Warrior Simulation, and Objective One Semi- Automated Forces. In this report, we discuss the process that we applied and our results, as well as our initial plan for implementation.
