LCS Total System Training Architecture

Abstract

LCS is a minimally-manned ship, and the small crew does not contain trainee sailors to receive on-the-job training. Consequently, LCS uses a Train-to-Qualify (T2Q)/Train-to-Certify (T2C) training process in an off-ship/shore-based virtual ship trainer environment, using simulators and blended training solutions focused on tactical, equipment operations, and maintenance training. When completely developed and procured, the LCS shore-based training capability will satisfy individual, team, unit, and force training, with an objective of meeting Capability Development Document (CDD) T2Q Key Performance Parameter (KPP) requirements. RDT&E funds are used to develop advanced Immersive Virtual Ship Environments (IVSE), or Virtual Reality (VR) courseware and associated simulators to achieve the training objectives. Additionally, after fielding these systems and courseware, RDTE funds will be utilized to upgrade training to maintain conformity with LCS configurations and approved operational technical manuals and procedures. RDTE funds are also used to test and evaluate training devices to verify compliance with requirements.
