FIVE

Modules

• Model Generation Module

  Model Generation Module (MGM) allows the operators to generate simulation actors through easy to use graphical user interfaces according to generic models using a customization procedure. This software can be used to generate:
  • Various sensor selection along with its capabilities and limitations
  • Various platforms simulating its performance
  • Various weapons (guns, tactical missiles)
  • CM / ECM / ECCM devices/facilities and their effects on the tactical areas. The following ECM techniques is modeled
  -Chaff
  -Flare
  -Jammers (Radar, IR, Laser, Radio)
  • Communication devices
  • Warning Receiver devices (RWR, MWR, LWR)
  • IFF devices and codes they generate
  The models created by MGM are stored in a file server so that they can be used in the next steps of FIVE operation context.
  The user has the ability to tailor predefined models to produce more specific models as well as to create the new ones.

• Tactical Scenario Generation Module

  The scenario are prepared by using the Tactical Scenario Generation Module (TSGM). Preparation of simulation models, preparation of synthetic environment, formation of force structure and preparation of combat plan can be performed in this phase.
  The users can visualize the environment in 2 and 3 dimensions in the scenario generation phase.
  The users have the capability to:
  • Define weather conditions, date and time for the scenario
  • Compose force structure
  -Deploy the hostile, neutral and friendly platforms on to operation area
  -Assign tactics (rules, routes, formations) to platforms
  -Assign target of interest to platforms
  • Set the parameters of the platforms such as weapon load, ECM load

• Tactical Mission Simulation Module

  Mission Simulation (MS) executes the simulation to represent the real world platforms (e.g. tanks, ships, aircrafts), their subsystems (e.g. sensors, weapons, counter measure instruments) and their virtual operators (e.g. pilots, commanders, navigators). So the hostile, neutral and friendly platforms with appropriate ordnance interact with each other in a realistic manner, as well as interacting with weather conditions and terrain. Mission Simulation implements the rules to fulfill the Synthetic Environment. These platforms go through a sense-think-act cycle and act on the synthetic environment through influence-reaction model defined in the rules. Also the user can override the navigation parameters (speed, altitude, heading, route, formation, CAP etc.), target of interest, weapon usage tactic of the platforms during the mission execution.
  FIVE allows the instructors to visualize the environment in 2 and 3 dimensions in the scenario generation, scenario run and debriefing phases through tactical map.

• Rule Definition Module

  FIVE enables the user to create the behavior doctrines of the platforms to simulate their virtual operators (e.g. pilots, commanders, navigators). Tactical Environment Simulation employs a rule based artificial intelligence to fulfill the doctrines within tactical missions. A certain behavior of a platform is represented in a rule. Platforms and their subsystem can be controlled though defined rules. Besides rules; different type of tactical elements such as routes and formations can be generated by model generation model so that they can be utilized during the tactical scenario generation.

• After Action Review Module

  After training, post-activity review and debriefing capability is provided to the user by debriefing module. It has fast playback, pause, stop and replay capabilities. The users can visualize the environment in 2 and 3 dimensions in the after action review phase.
