Cubic Global Defense to showcase latest
evolution of maritime training and tactical programs
Cubic Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation
(NYSE: CUB), today announced it will highlight key maritime
training and tactical solutions at the Navy League’s Sea-Air-Space
Exposition held at the Gaylord National Convention Center in
National Harbor, Maryland from May 16 – 18. As the Navy League’s
global maritime exposition, the Sea-Air-Space Expo is considered
the largest maritime event in the U.S. that brings together the
government’s defense industrial base, private-sector companies and
key military decision makers to review the latest technologies and
equipment serving the industry.
At the event, Cubic will exhibit the high-fidelity, game-based
Immersive Virtual Ship Environment (IVSE) courseware and Mission
Bay Trainer (MBT) for the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) training
program. Cubic’s LCS game-based training courseware allows sailors
to meet the “Train to Qualify" and "Train to Certify" standards as
established for both variants of the LCS and associated mission
packages, all within a shore-based training environment. In
addition, Cubic’s industry-leading Air Combat Maneuvering
Instrumentation (ACMI) as well as Command, Control, Communications,
Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C4ISR)
and data link solutions will be available for demonstrations.
“Cubic is dedicated to providing its customers effective and
immersive maritime training solutions with proven learning
methodologies,” said retired U.S. Navy Vice Admiral David Buss,
senior vice president and deputy president of Cubic Global Defense.
“We look forward to working closely with the U.S. Navy to expand
and enhance its game-based learning; Live, Virtual, Constructive
technologies; and training systems that align with the Navy’s
future training environment and next mission.”
Cubic will showcase the following maritime training and tactical
capabilities at the Sea-Air-Space Expo:
- Immersive Virtual Ship Environment
(IVSE): IVSE is a gamification training courseware that
supports the U.S. Navy’s LCS program by putting trainees in a
cutting edge, 3-D virtual environment, teaching tasks in settings
virtually identical to real-life scenarios.
- Mission Bay Trainer (MBT): The
LCS MBT combines virtual simulation and hardware identical to
what’s found on board a ship to safely, effectively and efficiently
train sailors on the functions and procedures for operating
critical systems, vehicles and equipment within the mission
bays.
- Air Combat Maneuvering
Instrumentation (ACMI): By instrumenting live aircraft, ACMI is
utilized by aircrew to train for combat missions more effectively
and with less risk. Cubic integrates ACMI airborne and ground
subsystems into a common operational picture that provides
situational awareness for aircrew at training sites throughout the
world.
