TACC IMBEDDED TRAINING (ESD)

EFFECTIVE EMPLOYMENT OF AIR POWER REQUIRES BOTH PLANNING AND SKILLFUL MANAGEMENT OF CURRENT (ONGOING) OPERATIONS. OPERATIONAL-ECHELON TACTICAL AIR COMMANDERS AND THEIR STAFFS AT THE TACTICAL AIR CONTROL CENTERS (TACCS) REQUIRE SIMPLE, TOP-LEVEL WARGAMING TOOLS FOR DELIBERATE PLANNING AND CONTINGENCY PLANNING; FOR DECISION AIDING DURING THE EXECUTION OF AN AIR CAMPAIGN; AND FOR GENERATING AIR DIRECTIVES, AIR TASKING ORDERS, AND COMMANDERS' BRIEFINGS QUICKLY AND ACCURATELY. FRONTIER PROPOSES IN PHASE I TO DEFINE AND DESIGN A TACC WARGAME FOR TRAINING IN A SPECIFIED USER ENVIRONMENT TO IMPLEMENT THE DESIGN DURING PHASE II AND IN PHASE II TO DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT DERIVATIVE AIDS FOR TACC PLANNING, DECISION MAKING, AND GENERATION OF ORDERS AND BRIEFINGS.
