The
MVTC™ is a turnkey training solution that was designed to
meet the urgent need for an affordable and mobile
training solution that focuses on force protection and
enhancing combat decision making skills at the small
unit level. The MVTC™ consists of reconfigurable and
deployable hardware and a suite of virtual training
tools specifically designed to meet the training
requirements of today’s deployed and deploying forces as
well as the need for high quality, highly effective
training tools that are low-cost, and that can be
quickly modified to train against emerging threats or
new training requirements.
Coalescent’s MVTC™ has already proven its value as a
training and mission rehearsal tool for Army National
Guardsmen preparing to deploy in harm’s way, those
currently participating in the Global War on Terrorism,
and those called to provide disaster relief. Based on
its training value and the overwhelming acceptance by
soldiers, the MVTC™ and its core training software has
become a favored training tool for small unit
operations, communications, and decision-making. As the
convoy and IED threat have escalated, these systems have
become widely used for combat convoy training and
mission rehearsal. In late 2005, the Director of The
Army National Guard stated in a letter to Congress: “We
have received numerous positive responses from Soldiers
and Commanders…These comments affirm that it is an
excellent training tool…we would like to provide this
valuable training resource to all Army National Guard
units.”
The training software can be added to or modified to
address evolving operational requirements. The current
MVTC™ configuration is:
-
The
Mobile Training Console (MTC) - Training system
hardware, consisting of COTS computer components in
a deployable transit case. Open it up, plug it in,
turn it on, and start training.
-
Deployable Simulation For Military Operations In Urban Terrain (DISMOUT™) -
Suite
of software training tools that are installed and/or
customized to meet customer specific training
requirements. Current software suite includes
training, rehearsal, and after action tools for
Close Quarter Combat / MOUT operations, small unit
movement and tactics, decision making training, and
convoy operations.
-
Virtual Incident Management System (VIMS™) -
Virtual training and decision-making software
targeted for the first responders (police, fire,
medical, and National Guard in their State mission)
as well and the Chemical Biological Radiation &
Nuclear (CBRN) response teams.
-
SINCGARS Training System (STS) -
Hardware and
software emulation of the SINCGARS radio and its
operation to facilitate initial and refresher
training for operators, maintainers, and incidental
users.
-
The MVTC™ also includes a complete training and
maintenance support package thus guaranteeing
functionality and support.
The MVTC™ completed an initial proof of concept
evaluation and went into limited fielding with the Army
National Guard in 2004 and 2005. The Florida National
Guard Simulation Officer called it the “the next
generation of Distance Learning and simulations
training.” The instructors at Army National Guard
Mobilization Centers have been equally impressed and
several States have individually sought to procure MVTC™
training suites. Additionally, elements of the MVTC™
training software are extensively used by the United
States Marine Corps for convoy operations and small-unit
training. |
