by Maj Gen Kamiya, Command, Joint Warfighting Center, USJFCOM
presentation on Leading Transformation with Modeling & Simulation, helping to make Irregular Warfare a core competency, enhancing joint command and control, improving global force management, accelerating efforts toward a "whole government" approach (i.e. interagency
participation), building and improving partnership capacity and improving training and education. Industry and academia can help with these processes.
Triads: The 1960s-1980s brought us "Strategic Art": Missiles, Bombers, Submarines; the 1980s-1990s brought us "Operational Art": Land, Air and Sea. 2001-until? brings us "Tactical Art": Leader,
Individual, Small Units.

4. USJFCOM Modeling and Simulation
Responsibilities
Manage the integrated joint training architectures using the DoD
Architecture framework and in coordination with the combatant
commanders; develop and define standards for live, virtual and
constructive training capabilities, including technical development,
capabilities prioritization, implementation, configuration control, and
sustainment; and enforce standards through a certification process.
(DoD Directive 1322.18, Military Training, 3 September 2004)
Leading the development and operation of joint training systems and
architectures that directly support the combatant commanders,
Services, and defense agencies. (Unified Command Plan 2008)

12. Making Irregular Warfare A Core Competency
How Industry and Academia Can Help
Characteristics that can make a difference:
• Measurement and assessment of human performance is the
centerpiece, not simply an ancillary benefit to help rationalize an
investment. Provides the critical standard upon which “black
boxes” will be evaluated.
• Immersive, decision-making stimuli infinitely repeatable though
nothing exactly repeated that was done before.
• Modular to introduce increasing variables of complexity within
changeable environments (to include conventional, nuclear, and
irregular war).
• Stresses tactical and ethical decision making leading to overall
individual and small unit self-confidence. Open ended
objectives…not merely electronic lane training. Challenges Cold
War era Task-Condition-Standard construct.

13. Making Irregular Warfare A Core Competency
How Industry and Academia Can Help
Characteristics that can make a difference (cont.):
• Replicates joint enablers such as ISR and joint fires (air and
ground) when used at home station, and can integrate these live
enablers in real-time for mission planning/rehearsal in combat.
• Ensures distributed integration of joint capabilities -- designed
with standard architectures to ensure interoperability with other
systems. (A virtual F-22 at Langley AFB, Virginia “flying” in
support of a Marine infantry squad negotiating the Infantry
Immersive Trainer at Camp Pendleton, California).
• Easily transitioned to the field. Same capability used at home
station and in combat. Small, lightweight, transportable.
• Evidence-based. Results measurable and can be correlated to
return on investment. Diagnostic baseline...objective
measurement / assessment.
