USAF rises to training challenge with plan to network simulators
At this year’s Training and Simulation Industry Symposium (TSIS), held virtually for the first time on 16-18 June due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the USAF laid out its vision for the future use of flight simulators.
Col John Kurian, senior materiel leader from the USAF Simulators Program Office at Wright Patterson AFB, told delegates that the way the USAF uses flight simulators is ‘under review’.
Kurian said that a new modelling and simulation (M&S) governance structure has been established while an M&S steering committee and the position of chief M&S officer have now been established.
