1.0 Scope

This appendix describes the requirements for the Stryker Variant (SV) simulated vehicle driver’s compartment hardware and software. When the driver’s compartment installs on a Common Driver Trainer (CDT) platform, the collective system becomes a CDT SV that provides training for drivers of various types of SV vehicles. The CDT SV shall assist in the training of Stryker tactical vehicle drivers during Initial Entry Training (IET) and sustainment training. The simulator(s) shall enable training in the critical driver tasks that repetitively train in a simulator are dangerous and/or infrequently trained in the "real world" (driving on ice, fording streams, driving under blackout conditions, driving down a steep embankment when coming off an improved road).

Reconfigurable versions among Stryker vehicle platforms simulations range from the simulated Infantry Carrier Vehicle (ICV) to the Mobile Gun System (MGS). The CDT SV will have the capability to network, so that one instructor can control several driver trainer platforms. The driver training scenarios can be "scripted" to enable practice encountering the same terrain/traffic conditions repetitively, or programmed for random variations in traffic along the same route. The driver cab hardware configurations may the same for each Stryker vehicle or have be slightly differences, primarily with the vehicle type simulation response to account for the varying mass and loading conditions. The following are Stryker ICV vehicle type modules:

a. Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Reconnaissance Vehicle (NBC RV)

b. Anti-Tank Guided Missile (ATGM)

c. Medical Evacuation Vehicle (MEV)

d. Motor Carrier (MC) (versions Alpha & Bravo)

e. Engineer Squad Vehicle (ESV) (all configurations)

f. Common Vehicle (CV)

g. Fire Support Vehicle (FSV)

h. Reconnaissance Vehicle (RV)

The Stryker MGS variant vehicle consists of the basic vehicle with General Dynamics Land System (GDLS) fully stabilized shoot-on-the-move Low Profile Turret.
