Mr. Kent “Supe” ClarkACC/DOT

Overview

• Distributed Mission Operations (DMO) development• Current status• DMO goals• Future needs

“DMO will be the only realistic way we canget C2ISR and shooters hooked up to testand train modern evolutions of tactics -like time sensitive targeting - that requiresreal-time interface among platforms thatare too stressed by OPTEMPO to traintogether in peacetime.”

General John P. Jumper, CSAF

DMO is AF TrainingTransformation

“The skills of our airmen are wearing outbecause they are not training to their mostdemanding wartime mission. In DMO wewill be able to use simulators for bigpackage rehearsals. “

General Hal Hornburg, COMACC

• Quarterly joint distributed flag exercises• Robust air-land-maritime-space-emitter training environments• Focused on integrated C2ISR execution across current and

evolving Combat Air Forces mission areas• Scenarios designed to support Combatant Commanders• Combined with Red Flag and/or Blue Flag

Future Allied Involvement

• Mission Training through Distributed Simulation(MTDS) exercise First WAVE• Seven nations including US and The Netherlands• Combined Air Operations (COMAO) scenarios• Demo potential of coalition MTDS (DMO)

• Coalition Mission Training Research (CMTR)• ACC/DOT, Air Force Research Lab (AFRL)• Developed common architecture to define MTDS training

objectives• Mission-level objectives transfer among coalition members

Exercise First WAVEFirst Warfighter Alliance in a Virtual Environment

• Long-haul connectivity between N. American and European ATM cloud• Sixteen sites presents some technical and operational challenges

Commercial Training SimulationServices (CTSS)

• CTSS is not DMO• CTSS is

• A non-traditional acquisition strategy – AF doesn’t own the sims• A contractor provided service for system development, support,

upgrades, concurrency w/aircraft• Must have funding tail from Decision to Activate (DTA)

through contract end• Funded with 3400 O & M funds (1-year money)• Once activated, each site is a must-pay bill• Cannot use fall-out funds for DTA

• Insufficient funding caused site activations to slip;contracts at risk

Commercial Training SimulationServices (CTSS)

• CTSS contract costs are front loaded (cost forservices with a minimum guarantee)• Significant cost decrease after 3-5 yr• Long contract periods are best value for Air Force

• Contractors’ revenue tied to start of training services• Recover investment in initial (3-5) years’ service rates

• Technologies• Info Technology and Info Assurance• Modeling and Simulation (M&S)• Tactical Decision Aids/Other Weather Systems in C4ISR Mission Planning• Blue Force Tracker (BFT)

Future NeedsEnablers

• Exercise/Experiments/Events• CAF Flag-Level Exercises• Virtual Flag (VF) Exercise• AF Research and Development• AF/Joint Experiments

• Infrastructure• Distributed Mission Operations Center (DMOC)• DMO Network (DMON)• Space Applications and Integration Facility (SPAIF)

Future NeedsNeeded Capabilities

• Rapidly develop new databases – cheaply• Goal = days

• Establish a common Air-to-Ground database

Mission Rehearsal“I was downtown at the start of tonight’s activities andgot to launch the first HARM of Operation IraqiFreedom…the location of my flight and the tacticsemployed were EXACTLY like we were practicing inthe F-16 MTC at Shaw before we left…talk aboutMission Rehearsal!”
