Experience with Using ModSAF for Battalion Staff Training in the Czech Army

摘要

The Czech Army has selected the use of ModSAF as the primary simulation model for battalion staff training. To provide the best simulation capability necessary for Czech units, it had to be customized. It was necessary to create terrain databases from a digital map model of Czech training areas, create Czech units and vehicles. ModSAF graphical user interface (GUI) was localized. An after action review system based on Motorola ModIOS software was customized as well to provide more statistics. The project of building simulation centers for the Czech army is based on co-operation between STRICOM and Military Academy in Brno and contractors - SAIC and VR Group. The paper presents experience which could be useful for other countries introducing simulations into staff training.
