STE Soldier Virtual Trainer (SVT)

Abstract

The Soldier Virtual Trainer (SVT) is enabled by the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) and is a virtual immersive trainer that combines and integrates several individual Soldier training capabilities: Weapon Skills Development (WSD), Joint Fires Training (JFT), and Use of Force (UoF). (1) WSD provides immersive capability to meet individual/crew weapons training in support of Army integrated weapon training strategies. (2) JFT provides certification and qualification of Joint Fires Observers (JFO). This includes the training of types II and III close air support according to the JFO Memorandums of Agreement. (3) UoF training enables Soldiers to replicate current Non-Lethal (NL) devices, munitions that demand the user to determine the appropriate level of force, select the correct device, and comply with doctrine, legal policy, and guidance for NL device employment. FY 2022 Base RDTE dollars in the amount of $11.288 million for SVT will be used for the technical development and demonstration of prototype designs for the Weapons Skills Development (WSD), Joint Fires Training (JFT) and Use of Force (UoF) capabilities. These prototype designs will inform; requirements, technology readiness level maturity, and level of effort to integrate with the common synthetic environment. SVT's acquisition strategy implementation and award will reduce impact of replacing currently fielded sustained Program of Records (Engagement Skills Trainer II (EST II) and Call for Fire Trainer III (CFFT III)). EST and CFFT PoRs are currently in sustainment awaiting to be replaced by SVT.
