Distributed mission training
Article Abstract:
The US Air Force is endorsing the use of Distributed Mission Training (DMT) for its simulated training needs. The simulator provides real, virtual and constructive systems that provide the trainees a shared individual and collective warfighting environment and a system for full mission training and operation rehearsal capabilities. The system also provides training capabilities for weapons systems and strategic goals. The endorsement is part of Air Force's plan to use high technology products during the training.
