Proposed Scientific Support to the Land Vehicle Crew Training System (LVCTS) Project Requirements Definition

Abstract

The Land Vehicle Crew Training System (LVCTS) is a proposed acquisition of a variety of armoured vehicle simulators for training within the Canadian Forces. The Directorate of Land Requirements (DLR) has published a Letter of Interest (LOI) to solicit input from industry, but DLR has requested advice from Defence Research and Development Canada (DRDC) Toronto to provide evidence based determination of the simulator requirements. DRDC Toronto has proposed 5 tasks that could be undertaken to clarify requirements, based on information provided in the LOI, suitable for inclusion in a Request for Proposal. The tasks include: preliminary Training Needs Analysis; an assessment of the expected simulator effectiveness; an assessment of motion base requirements; an evaluation of visual display requirements; and, an assessment of auditory noise requirements. Estimates of the time and cost to complete these tasks are included in the report for DLR consideration.
