Simulation Center with maneuver and mission command training
Cubic Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation
(NYSE: CUB), today announced the award of a three-year, $2.3
million contract from the U.S. Army’s Maneuver Center of Excellence
(MCoE) Clarke Simulation Center at Fort Benning, Georgia, to
support Live, Virtual, Constructive and Game-based (LVCG) training
for mission command systems. The Clarke Simulation Center provides
courses to a diverse set of customers, including Infantry and Armor
Programs of Instruction (POI) for Officers and Enlisted cohorts.
The simulations training will also assist the Active and Reserve
Component in addition to tenant units at Fort Benning. Under the
contract, Cubic will provide the Center’s classrooms with mission
command system training, technical support, as well as virtual and
gaming operations to better prepare U.S. military forces for future
operations.
“As a leading provider of LVCG training in the operational
domain at mission readiness centers around the world, Cubic
continues to expand our support into the institutional education
domain and leadership development in preparing the warfighter for
decisive action operations,” said Bill Toti, president of Cubic
Global Defense. “We look forward to continuing our partnership in
delivering mission command services to the Army and to fulfill
MCoE’s goal of developing agile, adaptive soldiers and
leaders.”
Cubic offers a broad spectrum of disciplines in operational and
institutional mission support ranging from conventional warfare and
special operations to mission rehearsal exercises across multiple
regions worldwide. Cubic currently provides elements of LVCG
training support at various U.S. training centers including the
Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC), Joint Base Lewis McCord
(JBLM), Korea Battle Simulation Center (KBSC) and Joint
