Recommended Acceptance Testing Procedure for Network Enabled Training Simulators

Abstract

Over the next ten years the Department of Defense will acquire many new platform training simulators that will support distributed team training, otherwise known as network-enabled training simulators. These include the AP-3C Operational Mission Simulator and Advanced Flight Simulator, Airborne Early Warning & Control Operational Mission Simulator, C-130H and C-130J flight simulators, Armed Reconnaissance Helicopter (ARH) simulator, Super Seasprite simulator, and FEC Upgrade Onboard Training System (OBTS) and team trainer It is necessary to test these simulators for compliance to the relevant distributed simulation standards to ensure network interoperability. However, at present there is no uniform testing procedure. This report details a recommended acceptance testing procedure for network-enabled simulators and provides test cases for the Distributed Interactive Simulation standard.
