Opposing Force (OPFOR) Threat Emulation

Abstract

Opposing Force (OPFOR) threat emulation establishes a plausible, flexible military force representing a composite of varying capabilities of actual adversary forces within an experiment. Resources provide a threat informed and operationally relevant environment to conduct experiments. RDER employs OPFOR across geographically dispersed experiments which requires the procurement of Manpower to operate OPFOR capabilities, a deployable experimentation white cell to maintain command and control of RDER proposal external from the exercise, maritime threats, UAVs/Drones, UUVs, Small boats, Electromagnetic Spectrum emitters, mobile and fixed medium range BMs, and Decoys to establish a relevant environment for RDER capabilities.
