Virtual Prototyping System (VPS)

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

• A distributed system of M&S Tools linking a synthetic operational environment with detailed and reconfigurable representations of Chemical Biological Defense Equipment (CBDE) such as detectors, warning and reporting systems, protective equipment, etc.

• Evaluate the military worth of system design and employment concept.

BENEFITS TO THE WARFIGHTER

• Lower cost, more effective, shorter development cycle operational systems.

• Lower cost, more effective evaluation, technology/system exploration, improved design, and employment concept formulation for CB defense system programs.

• Augments traditional T&E methods: fewer full scale field tests, more accurately focussed.
