This simulation control plan is a consolatory document which becomes directive in nature when used as an attachment to a document which has directive authority. It is not to be construed a change to any memorandum of agreement (MOA) that has been agreed to by any of the participating headquarters. However, if a conflict between the MOA and this simulation control plan arises, then the simulation control plan will be the governing document.

1. PURPOSE: This Simulation Control Plan (SCP) describes the concept for organizing, staffing, and equipping the various WFX 15-5 sites in various locations (see figure 1). It also describes the exercise director’s command and control organization, layout of the various exercise sites, the WARSIM training schedule for work cells and response cells, and the communication plan covering the various sites. The SCP is a dynamic plan that will be modified as guidance is changed or modified.

2. CONCEPT: This WFX provides advanced collective training for war planning, warfighting and decision-making skills in accordance with Army doctrine. MCTP will design and execute a realistic, stressful, training event providing leader development opportunities for commanders and staffs based on approved unit training objectives.

MCTP will provide the training audiences with a dynamic operational environment and doctrine based Opposing Forces (OPFOR). The WFX combines the challenges of free play simulation with a thinking OPFOR and the complexity created from a well-developed political, military, economic, social, information and infrastructure (PMESII) master scenario events list (MSEL) injects.

a. Commanders and their staffs plan, prepare, execute, and assess operations by analyzing the operational environment in terms of operational variables and mission variables. Operational variables consist of political, military, economic, social, information, infrastructure, physical environment, and time (known as PMESII-PT).

Mission variables consist of mission, enemy, terrain and weather, troops and support available, time available, and civil considerations (known as METT-TC).

b. MCTP employs automated workstations using Warfighter Simulation, WARSIM version 7.0 to transfer higher command orders and directives into information needed to fight the battle. Player/controllers in work cells interpret the simulation output and feed the results back to their higher headquarters using standing operating procedure (SOP) reporting and formats.

c. By agreement, MCTP is the primary simulation lead at Fort Hood, Texas and Camp Atterbury, Indiana.

3. ORGANIZATION AND FUNCTIONS: The Exercise Director’s command and control scheme and organizations with assigned functions are shown at Enclosure 2. MCTP conducts Augmentee, Player/Controller, and Exercise Control (EXCON) training, as well as database load and a MINI-EX utilizing a five-phase model.

4. TRAINING:

Phase I 29 May 15 Initial overview brief for cell OICs

Phase II 30 May -1 June

WARSIM training for all augmentees and player/controllers

Phase III 2-3 June 15 STARTEX Data Load Input

Phase IV 3 June 15 MINI-EX

Phase V Final Data Adjustments

3 June 15 Technical database maintenance and final adjustments.

STARTEX 4 June 15 Exercise Director declares STARTEX

5. AFTER ACTION REVIEW (AAR): WFX 15-5 offers an opportunity to furnish objective, near real-time feedback in the form of an AAR. MCTP OPSGRPs employ an Observer Coach/Trainer (OC/T) team to interact with the training audience; providing unit designated training objective performance and doctrinal process feedback.

a. Formal AAR. MCTP conducts formal AARs on a scheduled basis for the training audience. In general, MCTP uses the following AAR framework:

(1) Restatement of the Commander’s Training Objectives

(2) Review Commander’s Mission Statement

(3) Focus area discussions

(4) Final remarks.

b. Informal AARs. OC/Ts may conduct informal AARs at the staff cell or individual level. These AARs are characteristically through direct interaction between OC/Ts and the training audience and focused on observed process trends or discussing recently completed activities.

c. Methodology. Facilitated AARs use data and observations collected during the war fighter exercise. MCTP conducts AARs after each major training event and at the conclusion of the exercise. As directed by the Chief, Operations Group (COG), OC/Ts and analysts prepare AAR products. Normally, a mid-term AAR occurs at a logical point mid-way during the exercise and a final AAR occurs shortly after ENDEX.

(1) The tentative formal AAR schedules are as follows:

08 June 2015 – Mid AAR (time TBD)

12/13 June 2015 – Final AAR (time TBD)

(2) MCTP Observer Coach/Trainers, augmented by OC/Ts from TRADOC

Center and Schools, and other designated Subject Matter Experts, will team to collect data as required in the data collection plan.

(3) Observer Coach /Trainers will communicate with the analyst cell, Data is collected and evaluated. From these analyses, AAR products are prepared.

(4) Prior to the AAR, The COG discusses AAR focus areas and pre-briefs the Senior Mentor. Following the senior mentor brief, the COG also pre-briefs the training unit commanding officer.

(5) AARs will be documented by videotaping and included in the take-home package.

6. RULES AND WORKAROUNDS: MCTP uses a number of rules and workarounds to control the overall simulation process and stimulate military operations not modeled in WARSIM. MCTP publishes the Rules and Workarounds book periodically and updates it prior to an exercise. MCTP provides copies to exercise units. Each augmentee and player/controller should become familiar with the Rules and Workarounds book prior to the exercise.

ENCLOSURE 4: Exercise Work / Response Cell Position Descriptions

1. This enclosure is intended to highlight exercise Work Cell (WC) and Response Cell (RC) position definitions to assist units selecting personnel with the correct skills and background.

2. For purposes of clarification a WC provides exercise simulation information to a functioning Brigade level TOC. A RC does NOT have a field TOC to interact with or support. A Response cell “role plays” the Brigade TOC and staff, to include the Brigade Commander.

3. Definitions for WC/RC role-players and all subordinate Warfighter Function forces assigned, attached, or OPCON to the Brigade level teams are listed below.
