Objective

The aim of this project is to establish network-based infrastructure and processes for Distributed Mission Training, Joint Mission Rehearsal, and air & ground crew training.

Phase 2: The second phase of this project is focused on the modernization of RCAF basic aircraft maintenance technician training conducted at the Canadian Forces School of Aerospace Technology and Engineering (CFSATE), 16 Wing, Borden, ON. The lack of technologically up-to-date RCAF aircraft maintenance technician training reduces the ability to generate the required quality and quantity of aircraft maintenance apprentice technicians to support RCAF fleet operational maintenance requirements. To address these deficiencies, CASE Phase 2 will deliver part task trainer (PTT) devices for use in CFSATE curricula.

Requirements

This project is to establish network-based infrastructure and processes for Distributed Mission Training, Joint Mission Rehearsal, and air and ground crew training. It was to be done in two phases: Phase 1 - Distributed Mission Training Network and simulation architecture - which is complete. Phase 2 is delivering Part Task Trainers (PTT) for Air Technician Training, and is still ongoing. All costs and project milestones discussed below are specific to Phase 2 only.
