JSF IMPLEMENTATION OF SIMULATION BASED ACQUISITION
The Government M&S Support Plan (MSSP), working together with the WSC SBA Plan, will help the JSFPO implement the SBA Vision.
JSF’s SBA Vision is aggressive, collaborative, integrated and extensible use of M&S throughout the lifecycle of the program
- Aggressive: doing more earlier in the program
- Collaborative: tightly coupled gov’t/industry team w/shared responsibilities
- Integrated: across IPTs and Working Groups
- Extensible: from PDRR to EMD and PF/DOS; as well as to other programs
JSF SBA EMD Philosophy is for a strong partnership between government and industry with shared responsibilities:
- Contractor: Provide the Distributed Product Description of their Air System
- Authoritative data for operational performance, logistics, cost, and engineering
- Gov’t: Provide the entire simulation environment in which the DPD operates
- Red & blue systems, C4I, logistics resources, terrain, targets, atmospherics
