HII is Awarded $75 Million Contract to Support U.S. Navy Integrated Training Systems
HII's Mission Technologies division has been awarded a $75 million task order by the U.S. Navy Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division Dam Neck Activity. The contract is for systems engineering support for integrated training systems used onboard ships to enhance combat preparedness for sailors.
The HII team will create interfaces between live, virtual and constructive (LVC) networks and combat systems like the Aegis integrated naval weapons system. This will enable sailors to train at their shipboard weapons systems console, replicating combat situations whether the ship is underway or pierside. The team will also conduct modeling and simulation to support testing and readiness exercise performance and assessment.
The work will be performed in Virginia Beach, Va., building on HII's two decades of similar work for the U.S. Navy. This modern approach to military training aims to deliver a strategic advantage for the nation.
La divisione Mission Technologies di HII ha ricevuto un ordine di lavoro del valore di 75 milioni di dollari dal Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division Dam Neck Activity della Marina degli Stati Uniti. Il contratto prevede supporto ingegneristico per sistemi di addestramento integrati utilizzati a bordo delle navi per migliorare la preparazione al combattimento dei marinai.
Il team di HII creerà interfacce tra reti live, virtuali e costruttive (LVC) e sistemi d'arma, come il sistema d'arma navale integrato Aegis. Questo permetterà ai marinai di addestrarsi al loro pannello di controllo dei sistemi d'arma di bordo, replicando situazioni di combattimento sia che la nave sia in navigazione che ormeggiata. Il team condurrà anche modellazione e simulazione per supportare i test e le prestazioni e la valutazione degli esercizi di prontezza.
Il lavoro sarà svolto a Virginia Beach, Va., basandosi sulle due decadi di lavoro simile per la Marina degli Stati Uniti da parte di HII. Questo approccio moderno all'addestramento militare ha l'obiettivo di fornire un vantaggio strategico per la nazione.
La división de Mission Technologies de HII ha sido premiada con una orden de tarea de 75 millones de dólares por el Centro de Guerra de Superficie Naval de Dahlgren de la Marina de EE. UU. El contrato es para soporte de ingeniería de sistemas para sistemas de entrenamiento integrados utilizados a bordo de barcos para mejorar la preparación para el combate de los marineros.
El equipo de HII creará interfaces entre redes en vivo, virtuales y constructivas (LVC) y sistemas de combate como el sistema de armas navales integradas Aegis. Esto permitirá a los marineros entrenar en el panel de control de sus sistemas de armas a bordo, replicando situaciones de combate tanto si el barco está en mar como atracado. El equipo también llevará a cabo modelado y simulación para apoyar las pruebas y el rendimiento y la evaluación de ejercicios de preparación.
El trabajo se realizará en Virginia Beach, Va., aprovechando las dos décadas de trabajo similar de HII para la Marina de EE. UU. Este enfoque moderno para el entrenamiento militar busca ofrecer una ventaja estratégica para la nación.
HII의 미션 기술 부서는 미국 해군 해상 전투 센터 달그렌 배 분소에서 7500만 달러 규모의 작업 지시서를 수여받았습니다. 이 계약은 통합 훈련 시스템을 위한 시스템 엔지니어링 지원으로, 전투 준비성을 향상시키기 위해 함선에서 사용됩니다.
HII 팀은 Aegis 통합 해상 무기 시스템과 같은 실제, 가상 및 구축된 (LVC) 네트워크와 전투 시스템 간의 인터페이스를 생성합니다. 이를 통해 해군은 함선의 무기 시스템 콘솔에서 훈련을 수행할 수 있어, 함선이 항해 중이든 정박 중이든 전투 상황을 재현할 수 있습니다. 또한, 팀은 모델링 및 시뮬레이션을 수행하여 테스트와 훈련 성과 평가를 지원합니다.
작업은 버지니아비치, VA에서 수행되며, HII는 미국 해군을 위한 20년 이상의 유사한 작업을 기반으로 합니다. 이 현대적인 군사 훈련 접근법은 국가에 대한 전략적 이점을 제공하는 것을 목표로 합니다.

Die Abteilung Mission Technologies von HII wurde mit einem Auftrag über 75 Millionen Dollar vom Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division Dam Neck Activity der US Navy ausgezeichnet. Der Vertrag umfasst Ingenieurdienstleistungen für integrierte Trainingssysteme, die an Bord von Schiffen verwendet werden, um die Einsatzbereitschaft der Seeleute zu verbessern.
Das HII-Team wird Schnittstellen zwischen lebendigen, virtuellen und konstruktiven (LVC) Netzwerken und Kampfsystemen, wie dem Aegis-integrierten Marinewaffensystem, erstellen. Dies ermöglicht es den Seeleuten, an der Bordwaffensystemkonsole zu trainieren und Kampfsituationen zu simulieren, egal ob sich das Schiff auf See oder im Hafen befindet. Das Team wird auch Modellierung und Simulation durchführen, um die Test- und Leistungsbewertung bei Bereitschaftsübungen zu unterstützen.
Die Arbeiten werden in Virginia Beach, Virginia, durchgeführt und bauen auf der zwanzigjährigen Erfahrung von HII mit ähnlichen Arbeiten für die US Navy auf. Dieser moderne Ansatz für militärisches Training zielt darauf ab, dem Land einen strategischen Vorteil zu verschaffen.
