Marines long have faced off in simulated battles, but this MWX was different. Some 2,100 Marines wore new live-tracking sensor technology, and mobile 4G networks relayed as-it-happens data to exercise planners, training officials and unit commanders. The tech proof-of-concept marked its first large-scale use to expand realism and encourage more free play in the Marine Corps’ force-on-force combat training. It is a top priority for Marine Corps Training and Education Command and its “Project Tripoli” training modernization campaign to prepare Marines for future conflicts envisioned in its Force Design doctrinal concepts. That new tech is the Marine Corps Tactical Instrumentation System, with warfighter-worn, weapon-borne and vehicle-borne sensors that collect or track location, weapon engagement and battle effects. The idea is that tracking sensors and weapons-specific targeting devices inject better realism into exercises than existing, less-accurate laser tag or controller-driven – the “bang, you’re dead” – training. The networked battlefield expands into a larger, constructed, all-domain environment that ties in other combat forces, weaponry and systems, whether real, simulated or computer-created.

The United States Marine Corps is overhauling its training approach to better prepare for modern combat scenarios. The new plan emphasizes the use of advanced technologies and realistic training environments to enhance the readiness and effectiveness of Marine units. One key element is the integration of immersive simulations and live-fire exercises to create a comprehensive and dynamic training experience. This initiative is designed to adapt to the evolving nature of warfare, ensuring Marines are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed for future conflicts. "Training as a Service" (TaaS) plays a significant role in this new approach. TaaS involves providing tailored training solutions that leverage cutting-edge technologies and feedback from recent combat experiences. This model allows for flexible and scalable training programs that can be customized to meet specific needs. By utilizing TaaS, the Marine Corps aims to deliver more efficient and effective training, ensuring that Marines are constantly prepared for the challenges they may face in the field. This approach also facilitates continuous improvement and adaptation of training methodologies based on real-world feedback and advancements in technology (USNI News) (USNI News). The U.S. Marine Corps' shift towards advanced, immersive training methods aligns seamlessly with OPCON TRAINING SOLUTIONS INC. business model of providing Training as a Service (TaaS). By offering realistic, non-pyrotechnic, gas-operated blast simulators that can accurately emulate any type of explosion seen in conventional combat without the need for black powder, OPCON's solutions enhance the effectiveness of training exercises. This capability supports the Marine Corps' objective of creating dynamic and adaptable training environments, ensuring that Marines are well-prepared for modern combat scenarios. OPCON's TaaS model, which includes continuous feedback and updates based on current combat experiences, ensures that our training solutions remain at the forefront of technological and tactical advancements, directly benefiting military readiness and operational efficiency. https://lnkd.in/dtqb_5c5 #TrainingAsAService #TaaS #MilitaryTraining #MarineCorps #CombatTraining #AdvancedTraining #BlastSimulators #VeteranOwned #MilitaryTechnology #TrainingInnovation #RealisticTraining #CombatSupport #OPCON #ExplosiveSimulators #ModernWarfare #OperationalReadiness #MilitaryReadiness #DefenseTraining #SimulationTraining #ImmersiveTraining #TacticalTraining #NonPyrotechnic #MilitaryTech #VeteranBusiness #USMC #TrainingSolutions

During a demonstration at Alabama’s Redstone Arsenal, a U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) team successfully deployed and demonstrated the Rapidly Available Interface for Trans-Loading – or RAIL. The kitted RAIL system – developed by ERDC – is designed to function in multiple configurations as a modular railhead, providing the capability to load or offload military vehicles. RAIL can be deployed at a point-of-choosing along a rail line, eliminating the limitation of having to load or offload vehicles from railcars at a fixed facility. The demonstration was led by researchers from ERDC’s Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory and the Combat Capabilities Development Command Ground Vehicle Systems Center. Soldiers from the 687th Engineer Construction Company, 46th Engineer Battalion and the 757th Expeditionary Railway Center were provided training and were then guided by ERDC’s team in deploying two successful system builds in an operational field setting that provided realistic site conditions. To learn more, listen to a previous episode of the Power of ERDC podcast that focused on this innovative system. To listen or download, visit https://lnkd.in/gdx96VCg.

Acquisition professions span career fields that include scientists, engineers, program managers, finance and contracting professionals, intelligence officers, and more. It takes all these different types of expertise to ensure the operator has what they need to succeed. In the past, many of those working in acquisition never met an operator or saw an engine or aircraft that they played such a large part in acquiring. The Acquisition Instructor Course established with full syllabus in 2022, puts those career fields into the same Air Force Weapons School where pilots and navigators train. Applications are open NOW for the upcoming cohort! #defense #USAF #acquistion
