COMELEC AHWG M&S The AHWG M&S objective is to leverage the use of simulation for operational applications for the benefit of the German and French armed forces, in order: to assist the military community in assessing and adopting simulation in order to ease and improve current activities as well as to solve existing issues to help the armed forces to better express and refine their requirements in demonstrating the possible use of simulation for these purposes to address military concerns when technology and standards are mature enough to be deployed for operational application domains DGA \ DS \ CATOD Diapositive N°12 MINISTÈRE DE LA DÉFENSE
COMELEC AHWG M&S The AHWG M&S has to perform experimentations to demonstrate the real benefits of the architectures and processes under assessment. Demonstrations to the military end-users are also required to capture collections of requirements and to drive the way ahead It addresses all relevant topics dealing with the operational use of simulation : Simulation to simulation connection C2 systems and simulation interoperability Database generation Validation and verification of simulation models Modeling of operational tactics and procedures Application domains such as decision support, mission rehearsal, mission planning, training, after-action review DGA \ DS \ CATOD Diapositive N°13 MINISTÈRE DE LA DÉFENSE
COMELEC AHWG M&S Current statement: Explore and improve technical possibilities for automated transfer of data between French an German information systems and simulation systems Current status: Focus on the usage of C-BML Potential users are national troops as well as bilateral organisations (French / German Brigade and EUROCORPS) Experimentations performed since 2005 Demonstration to French / German Brigade in January 2011 User confirmes the potential for improvements in future operations DGA \ DS \ CATOD Diapositive N°14 MINISTÈRE DE LA DÉFENSE Folie 14
