1. SCOPE
This EST II Systems Requirements Document (SRD) establishes the EST II requirements for the development, fabrication, installation, delivery, demonstration and testing of the Engagement
Skills Trainer (EST) II which is used primarily as a unit and institutional, indoor, multipurpose, multilane, small arms, crew served and individual anti-tank training simulator. This effort is primarily a technology refresh that will incorporate both the existing Program of Record (POR) system‟s performance and current advances in simulation technology.
The EST II is intended to extend real-time visualization, situational awareness and After Action
Review (AAR) capabilities thus significantly enhancing the U.S. Army‟s readiness in service weapons and marksmanship training. The EST II is intended to establish a non-proprietary, open standard architecture and interfaces that supports the addition of simulated experimental and new
U.S. Army service weapons while maintaining the form, fit, and functional simulation of the real service weapon (i.e., weight, accuracy, and ballistics).
Units require up-to-date small arms trainers or simulators which can:
Simulate weapon training events which lead to live fire individual and crew service weapon qualification
Simulate training events currently not resourced that contribute to increased weapon, crew, fire team, and squad combat effectiveness; namely, reflexive fire, engagement of moving targets, firing machine guns in crew served weapons firing controlled distribution, and Escalation of Force (EOF) decision training
Simulate squad collective gunnery and tactical tasks for conducting Unified Land
Operations (ULO)
Provide the medium for training leaders of fire teams and squads in command, control, and distribution of fires while in a realistic collective training
Save current required ammunition resources, travel time and cost to and from ranges, other range support resources, while simultaneously providing meaningful, effective training to Soldiers
Support the functional marksmanship training strategies and standards in service weapons training
Support changes in the U.S. Army training doctrine
Support the ability to perform immediate action in the event of triggered malfunctions, including runaways and weapon jams
All Soldiers will use the EST II as part of their marksmanship training strategy, which includes both during Individual Marksmanship Training (IMT) and home station sustainment training.
1.1 Overview
The EST II intended use is as a unit/institutional, indoor, multipurpose, multi-lane, small arms, crew-served, and anti-armor gunnery simulation. Standard Army small arms service weapons including rifles, carbines, pistols, grenade launchers, machine guns, shotguns, and shoulder launched munitions must be simulated under EST II. The EST II shall support training capabilities including: marksmanship, tactical collective, and Escalation of Force (EOF).
In the marksmanship training capability, Army standard tables and Courses of Fire (CoF) for all standard Army small arms service weapons shall be replicated. The EST II shall provide the capability to accurately simulate live fire ranges in daylight and limited visibility conditions utilizing precision-scaled targets, high resolution imagery, and essential simulated weapons‟.
EST II accuracy must compensate for errors (i.e., parallax) and replicate natural trajectory (i.e.
spin drift, effects of wind and gravity). The ability to isolate, capture, and display shots with replay capability that highlights shooters‟ errors is critical in diagnosis and application of the fundamentals of marksmanship training. Replay of aim point trace (before the shot, during the shot, after the shot) is required in order to diagnose shooter problems with aiming, breathing, steady hold, trigger control, and follow through for on-the-spot correction. The ability to visually indicate shooter-induced right or left cant of the simulated weapon, which can possibly result in missed shots, is also required to support training.
When used for the tactical collective training capability, the EST II must provide fully articulated interactive entities with variable scenario outcomes based on a squad‟s action or inaction, or by the instructor‟s choice. The visual displays must accurately represent realistic 3D modeled battlefield terrain, structures and dynamic models and variable environmental effects that include day/night and dawn/dusk, variable weather conditions, illumination and include a limited indirect fire capability.
To enhance training, the EST II must present other special effects to enhance the view of the battlefield to include weapons effects, explosions, and vehicle damage. The EST II must allow the trainer/unit to build scenarios as they would fight to support training of all current and future tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). Feedback provided must include shot-by-shot information tied to each shooter. The EST II must assist in training tactical collective gunnery exercises for the squad, team, and element leaders in fire distribution and control.
When used for the Escalation of Force (EOF) training, the EST II must provide scenarios with multiple branching points to the instructor that will require the trainee to perform EOF procedures IAW current and future Rules of Engagement (ROE) TTPs.
1.2 Background
The EST II will refresh current ESTs, as well as procure additional EST II systems. The fielded
EST is a training system which utilized many Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) products that provided audio and visual presentations, sensing and feedback during training exercises, and simulates the operation of a variety of small arms simulated weapons. The EST is comprised of multiple independent systems that can be combined and configured in various operational training capabilities. The trainer simulates the same physical, functional, and operational characteristics and casualty producing effects of the actual service weapons. Targets move and behave in a realistic fashion. Training performance data is recorded and stored on the EST for replay and later evaluation. The EST simulator utilizes visual display systems, audio systems, aiming detection systems, and pseudo or simulated weapons with a power source interfaced by computer to provide virtual Marksmanship, Unit Collective Squad Level training, and EOF decision training scenarios. The EST safely replicates service weapon training events which lead to live fire individual and crew service weapon qualification and that contribute to increased service weapon, crew, fire team, and squad combat effectiveness training in Army‟s defined scenarios.
The Army currently trains Soldiers using actual service weapons on ranges in parallel with the
EST. The U.S. Army uses the EST for Soldier zero, grouping, and down-range feedback through practice qualifications. The EST simulator was designed to support simulated weapons training and allow for realistic target presentations in military operations conducted in varying environments such as desert, forest, and military operations in urban terrains.
