Abstract
With the Navy leaning towards a smaller but better trained force, using simulators in training becomes a cost effective way of keeping our military edge. Several innovations are being utilized in today's simulators. Hardware and software designs now include distributed computer architectures, real-time, multi-tasking operating systems, flexible generic consoles, commercial off-the-shelf equipment, standard real-time ocean acoustic models, and standard acoustic data bases. This paper describes these technologies and their innovative application in the Navy's newest Anti-Submarine Warfare Team Trainer, Device 14A12. Device 14A12 simulates sonar, fire control, electronic warfare, bridge, ownship aircraft and Naval Tactical Data Systems (NTDS) for 16 surface ownship classes. Device 14A12 also simulates multiple air, surface and subsurface threat, neutral and friendly platforms as well as missiles and torpedoes. The innovative modeling of these systems along with Device 14A12's enormous flexibility will allow the Navy to provide effective tactical training for the surface fleet now and in the future.
