Soldier Centric Advanced Technology
Abstract
This Project matures and demonstrates an optimized training systems to enable effective training and provide increased levels of Soldier proficiency and readiness. This Project matures and demonstrates Soldier centric technologies for the Soldier/Squad virtual environment to support the Army's Synthetic Training Environment (STE). The STE is the next generation holistic collective training capability that will train units where they will fight, with whom they will fight with, and in complex operational environments to include dense urban and sub-terrain; within the entire range of combined arms maneuver tasks in support of Multi-Domain Operations. The Soldier/Squad virtual environment combines and integrates several individual Soldier and Squad training capabilities, STE Squad Capability (SSC), Weapon Skill Development (WSD), Joint Fires Training (JFT), and Use of Force (UoF), into a single capability that can be conducted simultaneously or individually and enable physical movement/exertion related to the execution of Soldier/Marine individual and Squad collective training tasks. The STE will provide the realistic repetitions necessary to fight 25 bloodless battles before the first battle. The cited research is consistent with the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering priority focus areas and the Army Modernization Strategy and supports the STE Cross Functional Team. Research in this Project is performed by the United States Army Futures Command (AFC).
