The Naval Air Systems Command is introducing a new helicopter, the MH-60R (Romeo), for anti-submarine warfare and other uses. There are three crewmembers: the pilot, the airborne tactical officer (ATO), and a sensor operator (SO). The SO will be responsible for interpreting and managing a large variety of sensors. These sensors will be used to detect and track all ships, submarines, and possibly planes in the helicopter's vicinity, as well as friendly and enemy missiles and torpedoes. It is imperative to maximize the skills of both the ATO and SO, both operationally and tactically, as they must handle large amounts of information under stressful time critical situations. However, carrying out anti-submarine warfare (ASW) at expert levels of proficiency requires extensive practice in real or simulated tactical situations under the guidance of experienced instructors. To train sensor operators more rapidly and cost-effectively, the Navy needs advanced software which complements traditional training methods. This software would provide a learning environment where students can practice ASW via free-play simulated tactical situations while receiving feedback and instruction customized to their experience and competency level. The intelligent tutoring and simulation system software being developed duplicates the Common Cockpit Mission Display and includes free play simulation capability to maximize training. This intelligent tutoring system (ITS) will observe the operator's interaction with their equipment in the context of the ongoing mission situation, and provide appropriate reactive or proactive feedback to the operator in real time. The system is based on an individualized proficiency model of an operator, developed and updated throughout the operator's use of the ITS.
