The Lockheed Martin (LM) and Fire Arms Training Systems (FATS) Virtual Combat Convoy Trainer (VCCT) was developed as a rapid prototype to address the convoy training deficiency highlighted in operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. The system was based on two, mature, COTS-based systems with complimentary capabilities which allowed the system to go from concept to deployment in under 21 days. The LM-FATS VCCT solution (aka VCCT-L) provides basic to advanced convoy skills training and mission rehearsal, incorporating precision weapons engagement training, realistic weapons, a full-scale HMMWV mockup, high-fidelity mobility model and multiple, manned, network simulators with after action review playback capability. The systems interface using DIS and HLA protocols: these protocols, the open architecture, and commercially available database sources allow the VCCT to interoperate with other simulators. Multiple senses are engaged with the wide field-of-view geo-typical scene, weapons recoil, physical limitations within the HMWWV, high-fidelity sounds for weapons, engines, and battlefield sounds, as well as simulated voice and digitized communications.
