Future Soldier training System (FSTS) - Deployed 2005
As a communications tool, the America’s Army game (www.americasarmy.com) has placed Soldiering in popular culture by providing players a means to explore training and education as integral elements of a Soldier’s development. Gamers have completed more than 600 million missions and 62 million hours virtually exploring progressive individual and collective training events ranging from basic training to Special Forces training. Recognizing the game as a great icebreaker to open a dialogue with young adults on the Army’s career opportunities and Soldiering as well as a way to sustaining DEP/Future Soldier enthusiasm, recruiters hosted more than 100 game events in 2004. Given this level of activity it is not surprising that twenty-nine percent of young Americans 16 to 24 report that America’s Army is one of their leading sources of positive awareness about the Army.

Mobile Automated Instrumentation Suite (MAIS) - Deployed 2000
The U.S. ARMY PEO STRI (PROGRAM EXECUTIVE OFFICE for SIMULATION, TRAINING, INSTRUMENTATION) required next generation technology supports for operational and force development testing of current and future weapon systems through the use of a Mobile Automated Instrumentation Suite (MAIS). The Army needed an enhanced simulation capability that could be scaled to support an ever-increasing number of war fighters participating in simulated exercises in order to assess the effectiveness of next generation weapons systems. MAIS was developed for the U.S. Army's Army Test and Evaluation Command (ATEC) and is currently operational at the Operational Test Command (OTC) at Fort Hood, Texas. The MAIS needed to support Real Time Casualty Assessment (RTCA) and provide After Action Review (AAR) capabilities for a number of U.S. Army operational tests including M1A2 (Abrams) SEP, FBCB2 Limited User Test (LUT), and M2A3 (Bradley) IOT&E.
