Advanced Artillery Simulation System

• 3D Training System with Enhanced Elevation Modeling and 3D Models
   
• Trains Forward Observer, GUN Commander, Battalion Fire Direction Center, Battery Fire Direction Center, Fire Support Officer
   
• Incorporates Simulated Military Equipment (SME) to provide theory of operation training and equipment familiarization

ATSS runs on multiple PC-based stations, including instructor stations, training stations, central area stations, and evaluation stations in an Ethernet Local Area Network. The simulator is designed for growth to allow the addition of more stations, servers, equipment, terrain scenes, models, and enhanced evaluation capability; as well as provide for connection to actual guns, meteorological stations, and reconnaissance devices.

A key feature of the system is the integration of simulated field equipment in the training tasks. This provides a virtual experience that replicates every aspect of the field experience. Simulated equipment includes laser range finders, a night vision device, a thermal vision device, angular measuring systems, fire control system equipment, and reconnaissance observation vehicles.
