Cubic
Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation, today announced
it will highlight key maritime training and tactical solutions at the
Navy League’s Sea-Air-Space Exposition held at the Gaylord National
Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland from May 16 – 18.
As the Navy League’s global maritime exposition, the Sea-Air-Space
Expo is considered the largest maritime event in the U.S. that brings
together the government’s defense industrial base, private-sector
companies and key military decision makers to review the latest technologies
and equipment serving the industry. |
At the
event, Cubic will exhibit the high-fidelity, game-based Immersive Virtual
Ship Environment (IVSE) courseware and Mission Bay Trainer (MBT) for
the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) training program. Cubic’s LCS game-based
training courseware allows sailors to meet the “Train to Qualify"
and "Train to Certify" standards as established for both variants
of the LCS and associated mission packages, all within a shore-based
training environment. In addition, Cubic’s industry-leading Air
Combat Maneuvering Instrumentation (ACMI) as well as Command, Control,
Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance
(C4ISR) and data link solutions will be available for demonstrations.
“Cubic is dedicated to providing its customers effective and immersive
maritime training solutions with proven learning methodologies,”
said retired U.S. Navy Vice Admiral David Buss, senior vice president
and deputy president of Cubic Global Defense. “We look forward
to working closely with the U.S. Navy to expand and enhance its game-based
learning; Live, Virtual, Constructive technologies; and training systems
that align with the Navy’s future training environment and next
mission.”
Cubic will showcase the following maritime training and tactical capabilities
at the Sea-Air-Space Expo:
· Immersive Virtual Ship Environment (IVSE): IVSE is a gamification
training courseware that supports the U.S. Navy’s LCS program
by putting trainees in a cutting edge, 3-D virtual environment, teaching
tasks in settings virtually identical to real-life scenarios.
· Mission Bay Trainer (MBT): The LCS MBT combines virtual simulation
and hardware identical to what’s found on board a ship to safely,
effectively and efficiently train sailors on the functions and procedures
for operating critical systems, vehicles and equipment within the mission
bays.
· Air Combat Maneuvering Instrumentation (ACMI): By instrumenting
live aircraft, ACMI is utilized by aircrew to train for combat missions
more effectively and with less risk. Cubic integrates ACMI airborne
and ground subsystems into a common operational picture that provides
situational awareness for aircrew at training sites throughout the world.
Attendees can visit Cubic in meeting room #MR2250 on the exhibit
floor at the Gaylord National Harbor Convention Center. |
