Camber for USAF simulation
Camber has been awarded a five-year contract worth $135 million by the US government to provide modelling and simulation and Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) support, it announced on 11 August.
The contract began in June and was awarded by the General Services Administration's Federal Systems Integration and Management Center, on behalf of the US Air Force Agency for Modeling and Simulation and the Modelling and Simulation (M&S) community.
Under the contract, the company will provide specialised M&S/LVC operational, innovative and technical assistance in the government's transition from live training to realistic simulation environments.
Jim Brabston, president and chief operating officer, Camber, said: ‘We are excited and prepared to support the air force in this important initiative to transition to, and sustain a fully integrated LVC environment in support of its operational training requirements.
‘We have assembled a talented team of M&S domain experts to address the air force's modelling and simulation mission needs and we look forward to continuing to support the evolving LVC community with tested and innovative M&S techniques and capabilities.’
