JADE - An Experimenting in Distributed Simulation Based Joint Tactical Training

Abstract

JADE, or Joint Air Defence Training Simulation, was an experiment conducted in Norway in March 2006 to explore whether connecting existing training simulators and operational systems is a suitable tool for joint tactical training. The embedded training capability of a Control and Reporting Centre, a naval tactical trainer and game-based fighter simulators located at three different sites were connected over a secure wide area network. Additionally, JADE was a test case for a simulation infrastructure in support of training and experimentation developed by FFI. An overview of the joint tactical training prototype capability established for JADE is given. It consists of three main parts; a distributed simulation system, a command and control system and tactical data links, and a voice communication system. A brief outline of the experimental training event is given, and both operational and technical experiences are discussed.
