The Urban Operations Training package is a product enhancement to Saab’s proven instrumented training systems. The package adds the capability to instrument an urban training environment within the exercise box.

Multi-sensor tracking

The multi-sensor tracking system follows the players through open terrain into urban streets and through the three-dimensional challenge posed by buildings.

Easy to set up

The system is quick and easy to install, and requires no cables.

Rehearsal and after-action review

Location and status data is collected in real time and relayed to command centres for post-mission analysis. Urban terrain is represented in 2D and 3D to provide the participants with a replicated situational awareness.

The rehearsal and After Action Review (AAR) are augmented with features such as the visual depiction of the fields of fire and observation views from any point. The system monitors status at the individual dismount level and rolls up the information to the unit level to show battle flow and cleared buildings.

Battle effects Generator (BEG)

This capability provides various visual and audio effects in and around the buildings, triggered by direct and indirect fire on buildings or manually from EXCON. It creates decision-making challenges for trainees, which will sharpen their skills in real combat scenarios. The effects are distributed safely by a combination of smoke, light and audio.

Room Association Device (RAD)

Easy handling, seamless tracking

A multi-sensor tracking system follows the players through open terrain into urban streets and through the three-dimensional challenge posed by buildings. The instrumentation provides realistic combined arms simulation in buildings, as well as the open terrain.

Buildings are instrumented with player communication devices that are simply hung on the wall and work in conjunction with external sensors for direct fire engagements. Tackling the challenge of transitioning from unrestricted GPS coverage to movement around and inside urban structures, Saab’s urban tracking system is quick and easy to install, and requires no special infrastructure or cables.

Upgrade modules - Enhance the learning experience

Direct Fire Module

Streaming Video and Audio

Reactive Target with Laser Interface

Direct Fire Module

The Direct Fire Module enables the simulated effect of direct fire weapons on building structures.The module senses a building zone under direct fire attack, and communicates the primary and secondary effect to the players inside. Connecting the module to EXCON enables monitoring of events within the buildings, such as fire lines from incoming fire and building status.

Streaming Video and Audio

The system includes an advanced audio/video system that creates multiple possibilities for detailed evaluation of soldier behaviour and their communication. By adding cameras at critical points of the exercise, the player’s action is recorded in the system. The Combat Network Radio is also recorded for later evaluation. Exercise leaders and O/Cs can follow the exercise online, and all events, audio, video and positions are time-tagged and synchronized for a rapid and comprehensive After-Action Review.

Reactive Target with Laser Interface

The infantry reactive target replaces or complements the need for OPFOR resources in the MOUT training. With its light design, swivel functionality and different triggers, it is simple to reconfigure the training scenario quickly. By adding a laser interface, the soldiers have a predetermined amoutn of time to engage the threat with a laser-equipped weapon. If the time is exceeded, the shoot-back system is activated to transmit laser fire.
