Summary
Military Training and Simulation Increasingly Sought After by the U.S. Military
The United States continues to be the undisputed leader in providing training and simulation solutions for military preparedness and readiness against conventional enemies. Asymmetric warfare in Iraq and Afghanistan, however, has increased the need for military training and simulation, thereby increasing market demand. It has also encouraged the development of new and novel training and simulation solutions, which has saved numerous American lives.
“As warfighters are required to maintain the highest levels of operational readiness and excellence through training and simulation both at home and abroad, the industry is offering a vast array of cutting-edge solutions such as counter-improvised explosive device (IED) training and convoy simulators to prepare U.S. troops against the enemy,” says the analyst of this research service. “Furthermore, education is vital for military transformation as it can enable warfighters to leverage the latest advances in civil and military knowledge and technologies.”
Increasing Value Proposition and Cost Effectiveness Crucial To Market Success
Live training continues to evolve from the Cold War paradigm toward new solutions that prepare warfighters to fight against asymmetric enemies often embedded in civilian populations in high-density urban areas. Since 2005, the U.S. Army and Marine Corps have invested substantially in new live training solutions to counter challenges faced in Iraq and Afghanistan, including convoy simulators, new Military Operations on Urban Terrain (MOUT) facilities, and counter-IED trainers.
However, the heavy financial burden of the Global War on Terror (GWOT) has taken valuable resources away from further training and simulation and instead toward combat resources for the 'boots on the ground.' Therefore, the industry is being forced to deliver better solutions for less. “To address this issue, training and simulation providers could offer highly reliable solutions where end users have on-demand access,” says the analyst. “On the other hand, offering modular and upgradeable solutions could enhance total value and return-on-investment because end users can maintain concurrency without disposing high-cost equipment.”
