Opposing Forces Surrogate Wheeled Vehicle (OSWV)


MISSION:


To provide an OPFOR wheeled threat capability that units are able to train against and develop Tactics Techniques and Procedures (TTP) to counter and defeat the emerging worldwide threat capability. The OSWV will provide Combat Training Centers’ Opposing Forces (OPFORs) the ability to replicate a hybrid threat vehicle that is needed to train a Rotational Training Unit (RTU) using their Full Spectrum Operations Mission Essential Task Lists. The OSWV provides the key component of the OPFOR that is the tactical, technical and commercial vehicles that are needed during the Force on Force (FOF) training events for live training.

DESCRIPTION:


The IMILES OPFOR Weapons TESS is compatible and interoperable and interfaces with the fielded MILES family of training devices. The OPFOR MBT and OSV is a modular, wireless design that significantly reduces system installation times. Its Direct/Indirect Fire Cue (DIFCUE) interfaces provide better visual cues, flash, and smoke to simulate a weapon firing and enhance battlefield effects. The OPFOR MBT TESS replicates a T72/80 threat weapons, and the BMP TESS replicates the BMP 2 threat weapons. The SLM reports and communicates with the manworn MILES via an inductive loop, providing engagement and casualty assessment data. The IMILES SLM allows visual modification to the “base” system, replicating the physical appearance of the simulated weapon (RPG 27and other OPFOR Weapon Variants). It includes a Weapons Effects Signature Simulation (WESS) assembly that provides visual cues, flash and smoke to simulate a rocket firing.
