8 NEW FORMS OF TRAINING OF NEW FORMS OF TRAINING OF motorized rifle UNITSmotorized rifle UNITS

1. Firing and fire control trainings of units on the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion – a form of operational coordination of units, training BМP-2 commanders, platoons and squadrons of techniques and methods of units’ fire control.

Trainings are conducted on the basis of team simulators of crews and automated commander’s stations (ACS) by way of practical training of fire system organization and units’ fire control in the course of conduct of two-way training or training simulated combats.

3. Tactical trainings of control of units during a battle on the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion – a form of training of БМП-2 commanders, platoons, squadrons and battalions of techniques and methods of organization of combat operations and control of units during a battle.

Training are conducted without participation of crews and team simulators, but with the use of automated commander’s stations and control station only by way of accomplishing tactical tasks and training of specific tactical episodes in the course of two-way simulated battles.

4. Tactical exercises on the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion – a form of tactical training and operational coordination of a motorized rifle battalion (squadron), training of the battalion (squadron) commander of techniques of organization and conduct of a battle.

Trainings are conducted with participation of a battalion or squadron (intact crews, platoons and squadrons without motorized infantry riflemen) с with the use of simulator of a motorized rifle battalion in full strength by way of accomplishing tactical tasks in various types of a two-way training (training simulated) combat.

2. Tactical trainings on the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion – a form of operational coordination of platoons and squadrons, upgrading skills of commanders in organization of a battle and control of units during a battle.

Trainings are conducted on the basis of team simulators of crews and automated commander’s stations (ACS) by way of accomplishment by units and platoons of tactical tasks in various types of a two-way training (training and simulated) combat.

Implementation of the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion as a conceptually new training means into practice of combat training results in providing more possibilities of carrying out of tactical training events and objectively creates conditions for appearing new and modification of the existing forms of training, common features of which are:◘ Bilateral nature of trainings and exercises◘ Actions of parties on a 3-D terrain model◘ Real-time displaying the course and results of simulation modeling of parties’ actions and their cross fire activity◘ Simulation of the real structure of radio networks of a battalion ◘ Conduct of training, simulated, and training and simulated combat◘ Possibility of multiple repeating for training of tactical exercises

REALIZED TYPES OF TRAINING REALIZED TYPES OF TRAINING BATTLEBATTLE

9

Training battle is a battle in which trained units of parties act in full strength on team simulators.

Combined actions of trained units on team simulators in the course of a two-way battle (on one site, in common tactical environment and and in the same time scale) allow to approximate considerably conditions of training of units to conditions of conduct of a modern battle.

It is applied at conducting tactical exercises and trainings with motorized rifle battalions acting in armor-protected battle disposition, without simulation of actions of attached and neighboring units and firepower of a senior officer.

In the mode of a training battle the Instructor shall not perform development of the environment and control of actions of simulated units and means.

Simulated battle is a training battle, in which only commanders of parties’units controlling actions of simulated subordinated and attached unites (firepower) are trained with the use of automated workstations.

Simulated battle represents a process of two-way interactive modeling of reciprocal actions of all-arms forces and is characterized by taking into consideration of actions of all forces and strength participating in a battle.

Simulated battle is used at conduct of trainings of control of units during a battle. Instructors in the course of a simulated battle performs development of the

environment, control («imitation») over actions of simulated units and forces of neighbors and a senior officer.

When modeling actions of simulated units the tasks of rational allocation of targets, by-passing insurmountable terrain sectors, march columns and battle dispositions formation, and engineering equipment of positions are solved on the base of software.

Training simulated battle is a training battle in which trained units of parties act in full strength on team simulators, and actions of simulated units and firepower are controlled by trained commanders (for subordinate and attached units) from their automated workstations and Instructors (for neighboring units and firepower of a senior officer).

Training simulated battle combines advantages of both training and simulated battles, and provides wide possibilities of creation for trained units of conditions of a battle close to real ones, and is applied at accomplishing tactical trainings and exercises.

20 Possibility of integration of the simulator Possibility of integration of the simulator of a motorized rifle battalion of a motorized rifle battalion with with

simulators simulators of of armed forces elementsarmed forces elements

Capabilities of simulators of high level of integration Real and closer organization and support of interaction of motorized rifle units with

reinforcing units during a training (training-simulated) battle at performing tasks in the course of tactical trainings and exercises

Preparing and control of readiness of units of armed forces to participation in battalion tactical trainings with combat firing (to accomplishing combat tasks)

There is the possibility of integration of the Simulator with simulators of crews and units of various armed forces– tank, artillery, anti-tank, anti-aircraft forces and army air corps.

Integration is performed with the use of international standards HLA (High Level Architecture) providing for the possibility of joint functioning of different-type combined-arms battle simulation and modeling devices, which increases the degree of conformity of the training battle with real battle conditions.
