Mission
To provide the framework for integrating the Army’s live, virtual and constructive systems into an integrated training environment (ITE).
Description
LVC-IA is a net-centric linkage that collects, retrieves and exchanges data among Training Aids, Devices, Simulators and Simulations (TADSS) and Joint and Army Mission Command Systems. LVC-IA defines “how” information is exchanged among TADSS and Mission Command Systems. It enables the live, virtual, constructive training audience to see the common operating picture and to communicate using organizational command and control equipment. LVC-IA provides the common protocols, specifications, standards, and interfaces that help standardize common LVC components and tools required for interoperability of LVC components for simulations/stimulation (SIM/STIM) of unit MCS for training. LVC-IA supports DoD Training Transformation and Army Training Doctrine by providing the LVC ITE that allows commanders, leaders, mission command staffs and units to “train as they operate” as part of a Joint Task Force.
