SYSTEM TRAINING PLAN (STRAP)

FOR THE

JOINT SURVEILLANCE TARGET ATTACK RADAR SYSTEM (JSTARS)

COMMON GROUND STATION (CGS)

1. System Description. The JSTARS is a joint service system that provides real-time sensor data to both the ground and air commanders. The focus of the JSTARS system is corps and below. . It primarily interfaces with intelligence and electronic warfare (IEW) and fire support elements, but is capable of providing support to all of the battlefield functional areas in support of Army operations. JSTARS will detect, locate, and track moving targets and detect stationary ground targets located beyond the forward line of own troops (FLOT).

a. The JSTARS (CGS). The CGS is the key Army component of the JSTARS system. . The JSTARS CGS consists of commercial off the shelf (COTS) and government off the shelf (GOTS) equipment, including hardware and software, integrated into a shelter mounted on a highly mobile multi-wheeled vehicle (HMMWV). . Airborne sensors provide imagery data to the CGS where operators displays, processes, analyzes, and disseminates this data to the Army's command, control, communications, computers, and intelligence network (C4I). . The CGS produces and displays intelligence and targeting information to support field commanders in countering enemy movements. . The CGS features an open software/hardware architecture and windows operating environment designed to support fast and efficient user management, processing, display, recording, and dissemination of sensor data.

(1) The CGS is capable of interfacing with a variety of sensors such as the Air Force E-8C, a militarized Boeing 707-300 series aircraft, and the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) telemetry and video. . Electronics-intelligence and communications-intelligence data is accessed through the Commander’s Tactical Terminal (CTT/H-3). . The Joint Tactical Terminal (JTT), as a replacement for the current CTT, will be integrated into the CGS upon fielding. . CGSs function independently or may be interconnected to other CGSs over a fiber optic local area network (LAN). . Each CGS has a remote workstation (RWS) in the truck cab and interfaces with All Source Analysis System (ASAS), and FS elements such as Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS), and Apache AH-64, Longbow Fire Control Radar.

(2) The CGS is follow-on to the Light Ground Station Module (LGSM) and has the same functionality, with the addition of an integrated data modem (IDM) and secondary image dissemination (SID) capability. . This evolutionary growth and development of the CGS allows incorporation of enhanced capabilities, additional sensors, new technology, and advanced operator functions. This preplanned product improvement (P3I) provides war fighters a greatly enhanced, highly automated capability to receive, process, manipulate, store and display perishable intelligence data (from sources at national through tactical levels) in near real time to satisfy the commander's operational requirements.

b. CGS First Unit Equipped (FUE) Date. The United States Army Intelligence Center &and Fort Huachuca, AZ (USAIC & FH) was equipped in July 1997.

2. Target Audience. Training is required for all personnel holding military occupational specialty (MOS) 96H (in grade E-7 and below) designated as CGS operators (in grade E-7 and below), MOS 33W, and IEW Systems Repairers, and MI officers.. Initial entry training is conducted at the Intelligence Center in each affected MOS and officer course. E-8 Airborne Target Surveillance Supervisor (ATSS), MOS 96HX1B/1A, Basic Qualification Course training is conducted at Robins AFB, Georgia.

3. Assumptions.

a. Training Development Funding. The Program Manager (PM) will provide funds for the Intelligence Center personnel to participate in training development, CGS Integrated Logistic Support Management Team meetings, in-progress reviews, factory training for all test player personnel, and instructors and key personnel training.

b. Training Materials. . Training resources developed and funded by the PM will be available for resident training, unit training, Army Correspondence Course Program courses, soldiers manuals, mission training plans (MTP), and CATS training development. . The PM will also provide the funding to maintain all the related courseware.

c. New Equipment Training (NET). The PM will fund the doctrine and tactics training (DTT) and CGS new equipment training (NET) for MOS 96H and 33W soldiers at the fielded units.

d. Embedded Training. The CGS includes fully embedded training for individual/operator level sustainment. This is the “In-Unit Trainer” mode of software built into the CGS. The Target Signature Array (TSA) will also provide a CGS embedded training capability. The TSA will be either embedded in or strapped on the system and will interface with the Intelligence and Electronic Warfare Tactical Proficiency Trainer (IEWTPT).

e. Operator Prerequisite Training. All MOS 96H personnel, E-7 and below, must attend the Imagery Ground Station Operator Course (233-96H10).

f. Maintainer Prerequisite Training. All MOS 33W personnel, E-7 and below, must attend the IEW Systems Repair Course (102-33W10).

4. Training Constraints.

a. Operator Workload. Predecessor system operators have expressed concerns that with the addition of the increased responsibilities in the CGS system, their workload would reach unmanageable levels. . The CGS will build from predecessor system software baselines with increased functionality and additional control and display responsibilities. . FDT&E operator workload measurements indicate that as crew performance improved over time, the apparent workload decreased to moderate levels. . A training factor is evident, however, due to the possible perception by IET student operators that their workload has surpassed their abilities or become unmanageable due to complexity of operations, it may have an initially negative impact on training. . CGS training courses have been formalized and the Common Ground Station Trainer (CGST) is on-line to facilitate training. . Also, increased automation of some operator functions was developed for CGS implementation to offset the increase in functional responsibility. . These improvement factors should reduce operator workload to more manageable levels, while addressing the MANPRINT training domain.

b. Noise Levels. Noise levels from the towed generator and the vehicle could adversely affect operator-to-operator speech communications. . Measured noise levels never reached hazardous levels (above 85 dBA). Preliminary test results indicate that interior noise levels over 75 dBA in the shelter, at the operator positions, can be expected at the operator positions in the shelter. . Measured noise levels never reached hazardous levels (above 85dBA). Noise levels above 75 dBA will require the implementation of noise attenuating personal equipment to facilitate operator-to-operator communications. . If this noise attenuating equipment is not utilized by the system operators, training may be diminished resulting in personnel not being trained to the fullest capacity. . The affected MANPRINT domains include Human Engineering, Safety, and Health Hazards.

c. Workspace Layout. User egress, ingress, and other anthropometric accommodations and personal equipment stowage provisions were marginally acceptable in the MGSM. . Installation of the same equipment, (different suite) in the smaller vehicle, (CGS) results in inadequate space for personnel and the stowage of personal gear and supplies. . FDT&E results indicate that anthropometric accommodation and stowage provisions are limited due to HMMWV size and weight restrictions. . Training on the system could be adversely affected due to the lack of training room available to demonstrate necessary system hardware/component operations to classes of three or more students. . The equipment stowage concepts and personnel space accommodation, have been addressed as part of the LRIP program. . Changes from the LRIP development effort will be incorporated into the CGS design. . The affected domain is Human Factors Engineering.

5. Training Concept (AC/RC). The concept for training this system is to integrate as many hands-on, situation-based training events as possible through each course. The Intelligence Center is the proponent for all JSTARS CGS training.

a. Institutional Training. CGS training is integrated into existing MOS -producing, professional development, and officer courses to the greatest extent possible. . Institutional training is conducted for MOS 96H and 33W. . Doctrinal training is conducted for Military Intelligence (MI) officers during the warrant officer basic and advanced courses, Officer basic course (OBC) and captains career course (CCC). . Also for MI noncommissioned officers (NCOs) during the basic NCO course (BNCOC), and advanced NCO course (ANCOC). . Initial development and procurement of the program of instruction (POI) and lesson plans for the 33W and 96H institutional training is the responsibility of the PM. . All CGS operator and maintenance personnel receive institutional training. . Training required for maintenance and repair of CGS unique equipment and components is identified in the POI and individual training plan (ITP). . Additionally, training for Joint STARS operations is institutionalized into Army training programs, such as NCO advanced courses, Warrant officer basic and advanced courses, officer basic and advanced courses, Combined Arms Services Staff School, Command and General Staff College, and senior service colleges pre-command courses. . Appropriate doctrinal publications have been developed to support the training. . Institutional and unit sustainment operator training will use the Virtual Surveillance Target Attack Radar System (VSTARS), and the IEWTPT. . These training systems are currently under development, and are further discussed in paragraph 7, under Training Products.

b. New Equipment Training (NET) Strategy Summary. . Units receive NET during CGS fielding. . The NET Team (NETT) provides copies of training materials to the fielded units to support unit sustainment/proficiency training.

c. Doctrine and Tactics Training (DTT). NSTO is responsible for developing DTT. . MI officers and NCOs receive DTT (?)doctrinal training during the WOBC, WOAC, OBCCC, CCC and BANCOC and ANCOC courses, respectively (what about BNCOC and OBC?. This training explains doctrinal usage of the system in a variety of roles supporting field artillery, MI, and maneuver BDE etc., and the capabilities and limitations of the system. Concurrently, DTT is provided to personnel in the fielded units by correspondence, or a contracted training team. . This training closely mimics the information taught in the WOBC, WOAC, OBC, CCC CCC, BNCOC and BANCOC and ANCOC courses. . This training package is distributed to other schools wishing to incorporate JSTARS training into their courses.

d. Reserve Component (RC) Training. If a RC unit receives this equipment, RC MI officers and NCOs receive DTT during their attendance at the appropriate institutional courses. System operation and maintenance (MOSs 96H and 33W) training for current MOS holders is accomplished through exportable NET training developed by the Intelligence Center, and. Or Motorola CorpPM..?

6. Training Strategy (AC/RC). The Intelligence Center is the proponent for all JSTARS CGS training.

2) The training for connectivity between systems within the digital TOC will be trained at the Host system institutional training as well as basic and advanced level NCOES and MI Officer schools.

7. Training Products.

a. Operator (MOS 96H).

(1) Five CGS systems are required to train AIT operator organizational maintenance and provide training support for the 96H BNCOC and ANCOC courses during the hands-on and digitized TOC training.

(2) One classroom instructional system (PC) with 16 separate monitors will be used for slideshow presentations for operator institutional training.

(3) The Common Ground Station Trainer (CGST) which consists of four instructor workstations and thirty-two (32) total student positions is required to train the CGS operators.

(a) The training devices must be programmable and fully capable of simulating all mission configurations of the CGS.

(b) The training devices must provide training on all operator tasks and include a capability for automated remediation.

(c) The instructor workstation must be capable of controlling scenarios and allow different scenarios at each student position.

(d) The instructor workstations must have the capability to control scenario sequencing and allow instructors to revise MATDEV provided scenarios.

(e) The training devices must include the following training capabilities: detecting and selecting moving targets, target tracking, processing and interpreting moving target indicators, fixed target indicators, synthetic aperture radar, UAV, video and telemetry and Commanders Tactical Terminal (CTT)/Joint Tactical Terminal (JTT). It must allow update/ revision of target/mission priorities. . The training devices must have the capability to train all of the interfaces used by the CGS system. PM CGS and PM TRADE will provide all required support for the development of the CGS training capabilities

(4) The IEWTPT system. . IEWTPT and CGS system hardware/software will provide sustainment and proficiency training for operators and crews in a multi-sensor-simulated environment. . The PM is responsible for developing the TSA, a stimulator for the CGS. The TSA will be either embedded in or strapped on the system and will interface with the other two components of the IEWTPT; the Technical Control Cell (TCC) and the Constructive Simulation, (Warfighter’s Simulation (WARSIM) 2000 Intelligence Module (WIM)) Context Expander. The PM is also responsible for funding the interface to IEWTPT and WIM. This embedded training capability will be designed for use in both institutional and unit sustainment training. The CGS must be configured to go from an operational mode to an embedded training mode using a simple switch, without downgrading the combat functions of the system.

(5) (4) Combat Synthetic Training Assessment Range (CSTAR). . CSTAR is a training system that is scheduled for fielding in FY01 to the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, California, and was fielded to III Corps, Fort Hood, Texas. . It provides a limited training capability for 96H’s at those locations by stimulating or emulating Moving Target Indicator (MTI) feeds to the CGS that supports the maneuver brigade tactical operations center (TOC). CSTAR primarily trains the maneuver commander and his staff on the usage of and exploitation of the CGS system, while also providing a limited training opportunity for MOS 96H personnel to train in a hands-on tactical environment. Operations at the Combat Training Centers (CTC) will require prior coordination with PM TRADE to ensure effective interface with all the instrumentation systems.

(6) The VSTARS is a training system that is used for mission crew training and joint simulation training. . VSTARS utilizes Janus, a computer based simulation of combat operations, to provide interactive simulation capability. . VSTARS has proven to provide greater fidelity MTI and SAR simulations than currently in use, while also being able to create three times more simulation entities than the present JSTARS simulator. . The VSTARS prototype configuration will operate as a stand- alone system at Robins AFB with connectivity to the CGS school at Ft Huachuca, AZ. . MTI and SAR data will be sent via a T-1/SIPRNET link to Fort Huachuca. VSTARS has the capability to operate in the mission crew- training simulator (MCTS) and/or on an E-8 aircraft.

b. Maintainer (MOS 33W).

(1) (1) Two complete CGS systems are required to support training of system specific equipment and all ancillary system items of equipment not mounted inside the shelter. These systems must be 100% complete, to include government furnished equipment, and include Fault Insertion Modules. No CBT is used for 33W maintenance training, but uses 1 instructor and 8 student terminals for slides. This system requirement is in addition to the equipment needed for the 96H Course.

(2) One Common Ground Station Maintenance Trainer (CGSMT) is required to meet student throughput of the 33W unit level/DS/GS maintenance course.

(a) The training device must replicate the actual system to the maximum extent possible, without CTT and Ground Data Terminal (GDT) modules. . The CTT and GDT modules will be configured in the three CGS systems procured.

(b) ) The training device will be mounted in a clamshell-designed chassis that can be opened to facilitate demonstrations of the training.

(c) ) The training device and CGS systems will provide the capability to fault various wiring within the system to support troubleshooting of interconnections.

(d) ) The training device and CGS systems will provide a means to monitor student performance and archive performance data.

(e) ) The training device and CGS systems will provide the capability to insert system faults to facilitate maintenance training.

(3) High Power Workstations (HPW). The HPW are computer workstations that have the latest technology upgrades. . The workstations currently used in the 33W maintenance courses are not HPWs and are not being upgraded, but need to be. These workstations are to be periodically updated to keep up with the rapid change of high-end workstations. . There is to be a one-time upgrade to the Fort. Huachuca HPW classrooms. After the upgrade has been made, a quarterly check for HPW upgrades will be assessed for future mission support and training. The PM will provide necessary funding for current modifications and future upgrades of workstations.

8. Training Support.

a. Distance Learning Infrastructure. The PM is funding the development of CBTs for the CGS operators and maintainers. . These CBTs utilize interactive software to provide student training. . Additionally, CGS maintenance lessons and instruction is provided throughout the internet on the Link-33 Home Page.

b. Facilities. Operator classrooms must be upgraded to facilitate the VSTARS simulations and also CGS CBT terminals. . S ubsequent building modifications are planned for the 96H course. . The 33W course requires an additional two CGS systems and the necessary building modifications to maintain necessary throughput of students. The PM will provide funding for these simulations and related modifications.

c. High Power Workstations (HPWs). HPWs are computer workstations that have the latest technology upgrades. The workstations used at the JSTARS schoolhouses are not HPWs and are not being upgraded but need to be. These workstations are to be periodically updated to keep up with the rapid change of high-end workstations. There is to be a one time upgrade to the Ft. Huachuca HPW classrooms. After the upgrade has been made, a quarterly check for HPW upgrades will be assessed for future mission support and training. The PM will provide necessary funding for current modifications and future upgrades of workstations. All POCs need to go thru TSM’s and contact PM’s and tell them of the upcoming requirements and ask if they can fund now to assist in the upgrade to facilitate better training for the 33Ws that support their systems.

cd. Trainer Maintenance. The US Army Simulation Training and Instrumentation Command (STRICOM) will be tasked with the overall maintenance and support of the CGSTs and CGSMTs’ along with the CGS systems with the funding provided by the PM.

de. Significant Training Issues at Risk.

(1) Resources. Any future TRADOC cuts in instruction and course lengths may jeopardize the current training strategy for both MOS 96H and MOS 33W. The Intelligence Center will attempt to reduce impact via distance learning, contract, or other available means.

(2) Systems. Insufficient numbers of CGS systems provided to TRADOC may jeopardize both MOS 33W and 96H institutional training, along with the 96H BNCOC and ANCOC training portions that require utilization of these CGS systems as well as the JSWSstems for training.

(3) Devices. . Lack of appropriate workstations in the MOS 33W IET may jeopardize CGS incorporation into the maintenance strategy for IEW equipment. For example: without two additional CGS systems the Intelligence Center will not meet student throughput goals of the 33W DS/GS maintenance course. . Also, training will not be to standard if either the systems or trainers become non-operational due to software or hardware failures. . The PM will support procurement and development of the HPW classroom to facilitate the MOS 33W IET and also the F112 UNIX course.

(4) ) Workstations. Both the 96H and the 33W JSTARS schools currently use multiple workstations. These computers are to be used to train and maintain current readiness with the software and hardware compatibility in the CGS. If the schoolhouse workstations are left behind the technology race without upgrades there is a very high risk that the students are not getting the trainingteachings required to operate or maintain the current and ever upgrading CGS system.

9. Post Fielding Training Effectiveness Analysis (PFTEA).

a. Training Evaluation. USAIC&FH, as the training agent, will ensure the technical adequacy of CGS training. The Office of the Registrar will analyze the POI (programs of instruction), lesson plans, and conduct of training. Data will be collected by random sampling during course instruction, and upon class graduation. Surveys will be used to modify training courses or curricula and directed towards satisfying the training needs of the participating services.

b. Post Fielding Evaluation Summary. One year following the completion of the system fielding, a post fielding training effectiveness evaluation (PFTEA) will be conducted. . This feedback will assist USAIC & FHthe Intelligence Center in correcting training deficiencies and will provide valuable feedback that may affect the next generation of equipment or product improvements. Upon completion of the PFTEA, the Intelligence Center will take appropriate actions to update/revise the training courses and training materials. . Field training exercise results and /or operational experiences from the users will be utilized in addition to institutional training evaluation data. . It is vital that the Office of the Registrar receive feedback from users to ensure the training meets the user’s needs. . The post fielding evaluation team will also provide feedback to the fielded unit on their findings and actions taken by the Intelligence Center to correct noted deficiencies.

RESOURCES

1. Facilities Requirements. Current CGS operator and maintainer training facilities are insufficient to meet system and student load requirements. The facilities must be modified to accommodate the installation of an additional 8 seat trainer, 2 additional CGS systems for maintainer usage and additional classroom space for both MOS’s. The MATDEV will develop the Facilitation Plan for the training devices and equipment; actual modification of facilities will be performed by the U.S. Army. The Directorate of Engineering and Housing will perform or contract for facility modifications.

|RATIONALE: The Military is required to manage and develop CGS correspondence courses. . It is planned to develop 10 subcourses between MOS 96H, 96B, |

|96D and 33W. . For the development of the Army correspondence courses the developer receives 24 man-days per subcourse for In House parallel |

|development (10 x 24 = 240/207=1.15 man years. . Travel is for validation of subcourses at a CGS equipped site. . One time per year for five days per |

|MOS, at an approximate cost of $130 per day plus travel A=MOS, B = days, C= Per diem, D = Travel; A (BxC)+D=4 (5x30)+500 = $1,150. Printing cost relate|

|to providing 20 copies of approximately 100 pages at a cost of $0.25 per page for 10 subcourses: 20x 100 x 0.25 x10 = $ 5,000 |

4. Additional Manpower Requirements. There are no additional requirements for officers or warrant officers to operate the CGS. The estimate for enlisted operators is approximately 696, based on a six man crew and current system requirements. The required force structure is determined by HQDA and supported in the tables of organization and equipment. The estimate for enlisted 33 CMF personnel is 40 (two per Division Military Intelligence Battalion, two per corps military intelligence brigade (MI BDE), and two per corps support command. Does this belong here?

TADSS

1. Training Concept. All CGS operator and maintenance personnel receive institutional training. Training unique for maintenance and repair of CGS equipment and components is identified in institutional training plans. . All instructors for institutional training will receive IKPT and subsequent P3I instruction.

2. Training Devices.

a. Operator A CGST consisting of four eight seat training devices are provided to the training institution (Fort Huachuca, AZ) that will simulate an E-8 SCDL link to a CGS. Ten instructor consoles which include two in each of the five rooms (at Goddard Hall), eight LCW’s (Lesson Control Workstations) and two extended trainers with 32 student workstations are the primary institutional training devices to train MOS 96H students in the operations of the J-STARS CGS. The CGST is interactive, (simulating actual mission lengths) with the Air Force Joint Stars training system, training sites and DoD Battle Labs. This system is used to actually link CGS GDT/SCDL with the source using realistic search track-track procedures in the CGS. . The CGS and CGST is HLA capable/compliant, interacting with Army simulation systems. Other planned TADDS will include the IEWTPT system, and the CSTARS and VSTARS simulation trainers. . Refer to Training Products, paragraphs 7(3)(4)(5) for a description of these simulation training devices. Assets required to support BNCOC training are a minimum of one (1) Joint Services Workstation System (JSWS) and 8 workstations remoted off of the JSWS. Five CGS’s (2 fielded and 3 temporary) are located at Goddard Hall with four of them connected to the extended trainers. Those five CGS’s will be maintained by Motorola until 1 Oct 2001 at which time STRICOM takes over the responsibility for maintenance of those systems. The CGS, CGST, LCW’s, extended trainers and the BNCOC training equipment will be maintained by Motorola until 1 Oct 2001 at which time STRICOM will take over hardware maintenance responsibility. The maintenance of the Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) located at Goddard Hall will be funded by the installation.

b. Maintainer. Two CGS systems, and one CGSMT (clamshell) will be provided for system training. One instructor and eight student workstations will be provided for overview of system operations at Nicholson Hall. These are the primary institutional training devices to train MOS 33W students in the maintenance of the J-STARS CGS. Refer to paragraphs 7b(1)(2)(3) for a description of these simulation training devices. The two CGS’s and the clamshell will be maintained by Motorola until 1 Oct 2001 at which time STRICOM takes over the responsibility for maintenance of those systems.

3. Embedded Training. Embedded training for NET, individual and crew sustainment training. Fully embedded training will ensure that operators have the ability to configure the system to provide training on all CGS tasks taught in institutional training. The CGS will provide growth capability to improve the embedded training to keep pace with the CGS functional upgrades/modifications. This includes operator practice interactions with the Joint Stars Aircraft via data link, practice interactions with the battlefield operating systems (e.g. AFATDS, ASAS, Maneuver Control Station (MCS), etc.), and practice interactions with appropriate sensor systems as they are integrated into the CGS, using either simulated or real sensor data, or a mix of simulated and real data. It will also include selected unit level CGS maintenance tasks. Embedded training will not affect the ability to conduct a live mission (i.e., training and active missions can take place simultaneously).

4. Intranet Based Training. Unit CGS operator training uses HLA scenarios, dial-up capability to the school trainer to participate in instructor-led lessons, and recorded missions. Lessons, funded and developed by the PM, are available to the unit through computer-based training, (CBT) and also over the Internet.

What about VSTARS; IEWTPT; CSTAR and every other training device you mentioned earlier in the STRAP.

5. Additional Manpower Requirements. There are no additional requirements for officers or warrant officers to operate the CGS. The estimate for enlisted operators is approximately 696, based on a six-man crew and current system requirements. The required force structure is determined by HQDA and supported in the tables of organization and equipment. The estimate for enlisted 33 CMF personnel is 40 (two per Division Military Intelligence Battalion, two per corps military intelligence brigade (MI BDE), and two per corps support command.
