Simulation UsesSimulation 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
Virtual Battlespace (VBS2)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
UN Military Observer Course UN Military Observer Course (UNMOC)(UNMOC)
- Virtual Patrol Teams- Virtual Patrol Teams
• drive mission route• encounter range of scenarios
• map to ground skills• effective Radio comms• procedural responses• deal with ethical dilemmas
Joint Terminal Attack Controller Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC)(JTAC)
- Sensor Targeting Training- 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)
JTAC talks sensor onto target – Simulated Comms Net

Joint Seminar Wargame Joint Seminar Wargame Adjudication Tool (JSWAT)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

JTLS 2011 ActivitiesJTLS 2011 ActivitiesDemonstrations
• 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)

JTLS Future FocusJTLS Future FocusJoint 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
