Cubic Global Defense continues partnership with
Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division to deliver
surface training at the point of need
Cubic Corporation (NYSE:CUB) today announced its Cubic Global
Defense (CGD) business division was awarded an
indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract worth more
than $99 million to support the Naval Air Warfare Center Training
Systems Division’s (NAWCTSD) Surface Training Immersive Gaming and
Simulations (STIGS) effort and the development, delivery and total
life cycle support of a new virtual environment training system.
This system will be one of the key pillars under the U.S. Navy’s
Surface Training Advanced Virtual Environment (STAVE) program,
bringing courseware and simulator training systems into a Family of
Trainers to support surface training at the point of need.
“We are proud the U.S. Navy continues to trust in us as a key
partner as it invests in state-of-the-art technologies to train
Sailors,” said Mike Knowles, president of Cubic Global Defense.
“Our solution will provide the baseline for a fully blended
instructional training approach that seamlessly supports all levels
of Surface Fleet Training.”
Cubic brings decades of experience delivering innovative
training solutions to every training program. By applying this
experience to a common baseline for the STIGS Family of Trainers,
Cubic will provide a solution that supports the continuum of
systems while remaining open for updates and improvements for
emerging needs in fleet readiness.
“Our successful performance on the Littoral Combat Ship (LCS)
Immersive Virtual Ship Environment (IVSE) programs have validated
the benefits of our Total Learning Platform and game-based
training. Both provide a common baseline for the immersive Program
of Instruction used to qualify and certify Sailors,” said Ray
Oliver, general manager of Cubic Orlando.
This contract will also allow Cubic to deliver upgrades and
modifications to previously delivered LCS courseware, in addition
to new capabilities for LCS and other ships. Work for the STIGS
program will be performed in Orlando, Florida and is expected to be
complete by July 2025.
