Prescient’s Naval Tactical Trainer (NTT) provides integrated, multi-level simulated training from Combat Information Center teams through to ship command teams. It comprises of a complex network of computers distributed into multiple player consoles and Game Control consoles.
The Game Control consoles allow the instructors to control and monitor multi-dimensional training. Here, the instructor can define a scenario comprising of a multi-threat gaming area, atmospheric and oceanographic conditions, composition of CGF forces, inventory of sensors and weapons, initial positions, mission goals and constraints. In addition, the Game Control consoles provide the instructors a means to evaluate and debrief exercises through its intuitive interfaces. With the availability of more than one Game Control consoles, multiple simultaneous exercises can be achieved.
To simulate a realistic combat environment, the NTT includes a definable weapon management system. Weapons behavior such as type of guidance, launch profiles, cruise and terminal phases, homing-head range and homing criteria are included into the computation of the weapon effects. The weapons trajectories and positions are periodically updated and transmitted across the network so that the weapons can be tracked by radar, sonar or other sensors.
A detailed damage assessment module will register and assess the ship’s damage status upon weapon impact. Sensors are realistically modeled in the NTT which include radar, sonar, electronic warfare systems, IFF, IR, MAD, and visual sensors.
