Abstract :
The Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) Tactical Warfare Simulation (MTWS) is the next generation training system for the U.S. Marine Corps. MTWS is designed to support training of tactical commanders and their staff in Command Post Exercises, Field Exercises, and exercises involving a combination of live forces and simulated forces. This paper provides an overview of the MTWS system hardware and software, including basic design philosophy, exercise control concept, and combat modeling approach.
