Wednesday, June 06, 2007 EPL receives contract from Lockheed Martin (CCTT) program By epladmin @ 1:12 PM :: 249 Views   The Lockheed Martin Close Combat Tactical Trainer (CCTT) is the first operational distributed interactive simulation (DIS) system and is part of the Combined Arms Tactical Trainer (CATT) family of virtual trainers. As the first simulation system to include the Army's entire combined arms team, CCTT will serve multiple functions, including training, tactics and doctrine evaluation, weapon system evaluation, and mission planning and rehearsal. EPL provides accurately detailed ground and aviation vehicles in addition to human insurgents and soldiers incorporated within a synthetic battlefield depicting real-world terrain. War fighters move, shoot, and communicate on this battlefield by operating with or riding inside combat vehicles and employing simulated weapon systems. The CCTT system allows unit commanders to train their unit's collective tasks in a myriad of created environments to include day, night, and varying fog densities, own force complexity, and selectable enemy capability/skill levels.
