... Modeling, simulation, and collaboration ("train like we fight," realistic mission rehearsal, and simulation-based acquisition) · distributed, interactive, C2 simulations and visualizations to enable expeditionary forces to plan and rehearse missions; making the synthetic battlespace part of the operational battle sp ace courses of action assessment; real-time simulation generation for decision making collaborative enterprises, not only for battlespace support, but also for training, analysis, and acquisition The above concepts and their drivers indicate the strong dependency of future Air Force capabilities on information systems, and support the need for a rigorous information systems technology science and technology investment strategy.
