Presentation Transcript

  1. JOINT WARFARE, DOCTRINE AND TRAINING CENTRE (JWDTC) JTLS IUC 25 Oct 2011 Mr Grant RobinsonManager Training Technology and SimulationCentre (TTSC)

  2. Agenda • Overview of JWDTC • Simulation Tools • Simulation Uses • JTLS Activities and Future Focus • Development principles

  3. JWDTC Newcastle (150km North of Sydney) • lodge on FA18 Fighter Base • tri-service military Staff (~ 20) • civilian support (~ 20)

  4. ADF Warfare Centre (pre 2010) Joint Operational/Tactical Level Courses UN Military Observer Courses ADF Doctrine Publications Peace Operations Joint Doctrine Joint Individual Training Joint Collective Training Joint Exercises Simulation Section

  5. JWDTC Today Peace Operations Joint Individual Training Joint Doctrine Training Technology & Simulation Centre (TTSC)

  6. Simulation Tools at JWDTC Strategic Fidelity Joint Theater Level Simulation (JTLS) Joint Seminar Wargame Adjudication Tool (JSWAT) Operational Virtual Battlespace (VBS2) Tactical Collective Training Individual Training Planning Support Use

  7. Simulation Uses • Command Post Exercises (CPX) – collective • Deployable JFHQ – JTLS • Staff College Course – individual • JOPS - Wargame Operational Plan – JTLS • JTAC Basic Course – individual • CAS simulation – VBS2 • UN Military Observers Course – individual • Virtual Patrol Teams – VBS2 • Joint Operations Planning Course – individual • Planning Process (COA Analysis) – JSWAT

  8. Virtual Battlespace (VBS2) • Best for Individual training • Tactical level procedures • Plan scenarios – 2D • Immerse on execution – 3D • Joint and Civilian Systems/Infrastructure • Light user footprint • Heavy technical development • COTS software/hardware • Use: UNMO and JTAC Training

  9. UN Military Observer Course (UNMOC)- Virtual Patrol Teams • drive mission route • encounter range of scenarios • map to ground skills • effective Radio comms • procedural responses • deal with ethical dilemmas

  10. Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC)- Sensor Targeting Training • Train JTAC to ‘talk on’ sensor to the target • Simulation enables: • reduced cost training environment • control environment (night, weather, smoke) • introduce noise (disable video, degrade radio comms) Virtual Aircraft with Sensor Sensor Aircraft/Control Sensor Feed JTAC talks sensor onto target – Simulated Comms Net VBS2 VBS2 Instructor Pilot Student - Simulated ROVER

  11. Joint Terminal Attack Controller - Pilot Directing Sensor

  12. Joint Seminar Wargame Adjudication Tool (JSWAT) • Assists in adjudication of seminar wargames • Operational level • Orbat flexibility • Rapid force lay down • Map overlays, imagery • Alternate COAs • Branches and sequels • Turn based adjudication • Tailorable adjudication • movement • detection • combat • log • Export capability for briefs • Light footprint (technical/user) • ADO DSTO developed • Use: JOPC wargames

  13. Joint Military Appreciation Process (JMAP) Mission Analysis COA Development COA Analysis Wargame the COAs with JSWAT (or JTLS) Decision & CONOPS OP PLAN

  14. Typical JTLS Wargame/CPX Setup JTF Level JTF JTF COP - C2PC Training Audience Message System COMPONENT Level JFMCC Reports/ Returns/ Phone Email JFLCC Component COPs - C2PC JFACC JSOF JLOG Training Audience Message System Tactical Level Units/Squadrons/Ships Exercise Control Phone Email Embellished Formatted Reports/ATO OTH-G Track Data Stream Formatted Reports JOI EXCON MPP Messages JTLS

  15. JTLS 2011 Activities Demonstrations • Joint Combined Training Capability (JCTC) • Reside in JOC J7 • Lack operational level joint simulation (JCATS only) • Potential for JTLS-OneSAF-VBS2 federation • Amphibious Task Force (ATF) Staff • Force 2030 • new amphibious ships (2 x LHD) – arrive 2014/15 ? • ATF staff on board • SAS/HEALT schedules key part of any assault • Successfully demonstrated in JTLS • High level of detail (ARU/HRUs on Helo/Boats and re-attach)

  16. Landing Helicopter Dock Hangar/Light Vehicle Deck C2 Spaces Heavy Vehicle Deck

  17. JTLS Future Focus Joint Staff College Wargames • Conducted regularly over last 10 years at MAJ(E) level • Executive keen to see re-invigorated • Building business case • Seeking Staff College - Joint Wargame Examples • Identify Benefits • Virtual sim easy (e.g. $ saved with reduced flying hours) • Quantifying tangible benefits of SIM to JOPS wargame • Practice warfighting art • Appropriate application of force • C4I system familiarization • Reduce delivery cost • Puckster overhead, train quicker • Examine alternate wargame constructs • turn lengths, speeds, C2 interfaces

  18. Joint Military Appreciation Process (JMAP) Mission Analysis COA Development COA Analysis Decision & CONOPS Wargame the Plan with JTLS – Post H-Hour Execution OP PLAN

  19. JTLS Development Principles Capabilities • Amphibious Operations • Force 2030 – shift to amphibious capability Cost Effectiveness • Reduced puckster footprint • Speed of scenario construction Marketing • Validating operations – confidence building • Improved terrain fidelity • Perception not reality
