Game-Based Training Research for Navy EW

MOVES Institute Research ProjectThe goal of this research is to determine experimentally the best methods of training naval personnel in current and future naval surface warfare principles, practices, and tactics of electronic warfare (EW) and anti-ship cruise missile defense (ACMD), including both hard-kill (kinetic) and soft-kill (electronic warfare) in order to produce the most tactically proficient operators at the lowest cost. We are helping design and evaluate modifications to Strike Group Defender (SGD), a new game built for training surface personnel involved in ACMD, such as tactical action officers, EW operators, and other combat information center personnel
