JTLS-GO Program Mission

• Maintain a stable, reliable, available system that meets cybersecurity requirements.

• Provide a capability for DoD organizations and multi-national partners to train effectively with interoperable tools.

• Provide capability that maximizes the use of innovative, low-cost approaches to address exercise and engagement requirements.

• Respond to shifting training priorities and address current and emerging training gaps and C4I interoperability requirements.

• Provide a flexible, scalable and deployable simulation.

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

Overall Mission Support (1)

• Maintain stable, reliable, available system that meets cybersecurity requirements.‒ Log, track and review all Engineering Change

Proposals and Software Trouble Reports ‒ Provide timely fixes to software deficiencies and bugs‒ Continue cybersecurity scans at JS J7 facility‒ Provide quarterly software updates to users

8

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

Overall Mission Support (2)

• Provide a capability for DoD organizations and multi-national partners to train effectively with interoperable tools.‒ Provide single JTLS-GO software baseline for all

users ‒ Maintain consolidated requirements (ECP/STR)

database collected from all users‒ Share ideas, thoughts and experiences among users‒ Continue to make the software available to our

International and NATO partners‒ Provide Master Scenario Events List (MSEL)

integrated tool to support U.S. JMSEL, NATO & International users

9

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

Overall Mission Support (3)

• Provide a capability that maximizes the use of innovative, low-cost approaches to address exercise and engagement requirements and training gaps.‒ Web-enabled – easily distributed or deployable‒ Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)‒ Continue to enhance functionality and capabilities

to fill training gaps and incorporate emerging technologies

‒ Efficiencies and ease of use through WHIP and other cost-free commercial applications

‒ Migrate from Oracle to PostgreSQL10

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

Overall Mission Support (4)

• Adjust to shifting training priorities, address current and emerging training gaps and C4I interoperability requirements.‒ Provide capability to train simultaneous multiple

Combatant Commands (CCMD) and conduct overlapping contingencies involving transregional, multi-domain and multifunctional (TMM) threats

‒ Provide training, analysis, development, and evaluation of contingency plans and joint tactics

‒ Provide training and evaluation of military strategies and Courses of Actions (COA)

‒ Analyze combat unit structure with respect to assigned combat systems

‒ Provides a flexible C4I interface capability11

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

Overall Mission Support (5)

• Provide a flexible, scalable and deployable simulation.‒ Encompass a larger training audience, including coalition

partners and training facilities‒ Increase number of sides from 10 to 20 to take better

advantage of JTLS-GO global training capability‒ Remain a low footprint, low bandwidth and deployable

solution‒ Continue to focus on service-oriented architecture (SOA)

web-based applications as services‒ Maintain a single database of users’ requirements

12

UNCLASSIFIED

• Research and Design to replace Oracle. Joint Staff J7 is migrating to EnterpriseDB Advanced Server. The difference of choosing PostgreSQL free community edition (or EnterpriseBD Standard Edition) versus the EnterpriseDB Advanced Server is the licensing.

• New weapon system representation. Include laser technologies, unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned surface & subsurface water vehicles and the addition of rail guns.

• JTLS Graphical User Interface (GUI) and web capabilities. ‒ User to select various map inputs or visualization of screen terrain

and objects such as found using Geographic Tagged Image File Format (GeoTIFF) – a public domain metadata standard.

‒ JTLS Web Hosted Interface Program (WHIP) capable of displaying and interacting with multiple sides and/or factions within the simulation scenario (Super WHIP).

FY18-19 Enhancements (1)

13

UNCLASSIFIED

UNCLASSIFIED

• Robust AAR. More efficient capability for the user to easily access and/or request reports, data, and other information captured in the JTLS-GO After Action Review (AAR) repository.

• Complete the development of the integrated Master Scenario Event List (MSEL) tool. ‒ Capable of JTLS standalone use, as well as, capable of exporting and

importing files, data, or information with the current JS J7 JMSEL as well as the Training Environment Manager (TEM) used with JS J7 Joint Training Tools.

• Re-design of the JTLS Combat System Prototype (CSP) data/information into a repository concept. Will provide for a 1-to-1 mapping of combat systems vice the current 1-to-many.

• Develop SDB to represent Global Integrated Exercises (GIE)‒ Transregional, multi-domain and multi-functional (TMM) conflicts

and capabilities (multiple AOR representation)
