23 Sep 19. Meggitt Training Systems to Highlight Enhanced Infantry Target and Army-Fielded Small-Arms Trainer at AUSA 2019. Meggitt Training Systems, the leading provider of integrated live-fire and virtual weapons training products and services for armed forces and law enforcement, will display its newest Stationary Infantry Target (SIT) with LOMAH (location of miss and hit) at the Association of the US Army Annual Meeting & Exposition (AUSA). The military industry event will be held October 14-16, 2019 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC.
Meggitt’s SIT is a remote-controlled pop-up target actuator, capable of supporting a variety of target silhouettes. The lightweight and portable target adapts to a variety of range environments, infrastructures and operational constraints, and does not contain hydraulic fluids, contaminants or hazardous toxins. The LOMAH system adds shot scoring by measuring the precise time of a bullet’s supersonic shock wave passing over a ballistically protected microphone sensor array. Triangulation of sound waves for hit location makes Meggitt’s offering unique in this market, computing the bullet’s location and presenting a graphical image on the shooter’s firing point computer. The bullet’s measured location provides the shooter the information needed to accurately display shot grouping and zeroing of weapons more effectively, resulting in improved marksmanship skills. LOMAH can be installed easily via a retrofit kit or on new, LOMAH-capable Meggitt targets such as the SIT.
Meggitt’s live-fire offerings include infantry and armor targets, outdoor and indoor range solutions, target retrieval and training systems, shooting stalls, bullet traps, range control systems, as well as range planning and design. The company has won numerous orders in recent years via the Army Targetry Systems (ATS) III indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity, five-year contract, including $15.8m awarded by Tank-automotive & Armaments Command since May 2019.
“Meggitt’s LOMAH capability is truly industry leading, offering superior accuracy while saving precious manpower downrange,” said Andrea Czop, vice president of strategy, sales and marketing for Meggitt Training Systems. “Meanwhile, the FATS® 100MIL virtual training system has generated global interest from allied nations looking to achieve the highest fidelity for marksmanship, judgmental and collective training.”
The FATS 100MIL is a major expansion in weapons training capability, introducing revolutionary features such as advanced game engine 3D marksmanship, enhanced diagnostics with intelligent automatic coaching and collective training. The system provides an impressive array of functionality for both instructor and trainee, delivering solid weapon-handling and shot-placement analytics, coaching tools that automatically highlight trainee results for reinforcement or correction, and enhanced graphic capabilities for an all-encompassing immersive training platform. Meggitt was first awarded the Engagement Skills Trainer (EST) II program of record contract in 2014 and installed the last of 895 systems based on the FATS 100MIL at Ft. Bragg, N.C., on April 14, 2018. The FATS 100MIL interfaces with a variety of firearms, including Meggitt’s wireless BlueFire® weapons. A variety of these weapons will be demonstrated at AUSA.

25 Sep 19. Caliburn International Helps Worldwide Community Avoid Deadly Explosive Hazards Through Training. Caliburn International, a professional services company serving national defense, international diplomacy, and homeland security clients, has developed new United Nations (UN) training materials focused on eliminating improvised explosive device (IED) threats that are impeding global peacekeeping operations.
In recent years, international peacekeeping missions have become more complex and dangerous. From 2015-2018, a total of 154 UN peacekeepers were killed in malicious attacks in operations. In a growing number of incidents, IEDs were the weapon of choice.
Funded through the U.S. Global Peace Operations Initiative (GPOI) in partnership with the U.S. Department of State and the UN Mine Action Service (UNMAS), Caliburn has created 11 training manuals focused on improvised explosive device disposal (IEDD) and conventional munitions disposal (CMD) training. The training integrates classroom instruction and practical exercises utilizing current industry best practices.
“The goal of the project was to create a complete, standardized training curriculum that would enable UN and international organizations to teach CMD, IEDD, hazard awareness, and IED threat mitigation skills using a common internationally recognized lexicon and an agreed upon set of standards,” said Mike Pate, Senior Vice President and Head of Caliburn’s Munitions and Environmental Remediation line of business.
“We are proud to serve as an integral part in this global effort to generate improved capacity to defeat these deadly explosive hazards and further improve the interoperability of UN peacekeeping forces,” said C.D. Moore, Caliburn’s Chief Operating Officer and Executive Vice President.
UNMAS and capacity-building partners such as the U.S. have increased support for counter-IED and related training for troop and police contributing countries. However, the differences in training standards across the UN and other training providers have hampered the effectiveness of such efforts, until now.
UNMAS rolled out the new course materials at an international workshop, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Defense’s Africa Command, in Nairobi.

25 Sep 19. Slovakia Looks for New Trainer Jets. Lately, it has emerged that the Ministry of Defence (MoD) of Slovakia intends to start a procurement programme for a number of modern trainer aircraft, which will allow for the training of a new generation of pilots, who will start operating a fleet of 14 F-16V Block 70/72 multirole fighter jets, including two twin-seat aircraft in the next years.
It is not yet known what technical requirements will be set for the procurement of new trainer jets, as the Slovak MoD is understood to still be in the process of specifying them.
However, it is expected that new trainer jets will allow the Slovak Air Force to completely replace the currently operated legacy trainers, including five L-39CM and two L-39ZAM, which are said to be incapable of offering the level of training required to prepare pilots to operate the future F-16s, and should be phased out in the next 5-6 years.
Although it has not yet been determined what will be the procedure under which Slovakia intends to finalise the new modernisation effort, is seems very likely that the MoD will decide to procure the newest generation of the L-39 family of trainers, the L-39NG, which is still being developed by the Czech aircraft manufacturer AERO Vodochody AEROSPACE. The first prototype of this aircraft made the initial flight on December 22, 2018.
According to the manufacturer, the L-39NG is designed as a unified, comprehensive training system for modern air forces. It is based on the aerodynamic concept of the current L-39, but utilises the latest technologies and equipment. The aircraft’s avionics are prepared to train future pilots of 4th and 5th generation aircraft and can be tailored to particular customers’ requirements. The L-39NG features a broad range of simulation technologies, including the integration with high-tech tactical simulation centres to increase training effi-ciency.
Late last year the Government of Slovakia signed a number of contracts worth nearly $1.6bin, which cover not only the procurement of new F-16 fighter jets, but also technical, logistical and training support.
Under the terms of these agreements, a group of 22 pilots and 160 aircraft techni-cians will undergo the initial training programme in the USA.
Deliveries of Slovak F-16 fighters should commence in Q4 2022, when the first batch of four jets, including two twin-seat aircraft, is expected to arrive in the Euro-pean country. The process of introduction of these aircraft into the Slovak Air Force should conclude in 2024. (Source: ESD Spotlight)
25 Sep 19. Westlant 19 offers first look at a UK Carrier Strike Group. HMS Queen Elizabeth, the UK’s first supercarrier, has been joined at sea by the HMS Northumberland, HMS Dragon and RFA Tideforce, offering the first look at the UK’s Carrier Strike capabilities. The ships formed the group while in North America for the Westlant 19 deployment, designed to put the HMS Queen Elizabeth through its paces, including launching F-35B aircraft from its decks.
The Carrier Strike Group formation allows the ships to reach deep into international waters while protecting each other leveraging the different vessels’ strengths. Combined the ships have a total displacement of almost 100,000 tonnes
The HMS Northumberland Type 23 frigate provides the formation with anti-submarine and ship power, HMS Dragon Destroyer provides air cover and the RFA Tideforce is a tanker designed to keep the group at sea for longer deployments.
Before the deployment, the Royal Navy outlined the goals of Westlant 19 saying: “The aim of Westlant is simple: to push both the F-35 and HMS Queen Elizabeth to their limits.
“Having gathered the data and experiences required to ‘write the manual’ for safely operating the F-35, the focus of Westlant now shifts to developing combat techniques for exploiting the fighter’s awesome capabilities in action and working as part of a carrier task group.”
The exercise will see both UK and US F-35 fighter jets taking off the aircraft carriers deck and involve personnel from the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, British Army, US Navy, US Air Force and US Marine Corps.
Earlier this month at DSEI, the First Sea Lord Admiral Tony Radakin pledged to utilise the UK’s carrier capabilities saying: “We need to shift the whole Navy to being a Carrier Task Group Navy. This will allow us to project our power around the world. And at a level alongside our American and French allies. On Twitter, RFA Tideforce, part of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary, shared images of the ship being used to refuel HMS Dragon. (Source: naval-technology.com)
24 Sep 19. Taiwan rolls out indigenous T-5 aircraft. Taiwan has rolled out the T-5 ‘Blue Magpie’ Advanced Jet Trainer (AJT) aircraft that it developed to equip the Republic of China Air Force (RoCAF). The unveiling of the supersonic twin-seat Taiwan Aerospace Industrial Development Corp (AIDC) AJT on 23 September was attended by the country’s president, Tsai Ing-wen. With the rollout, ground trials of the aircraft will commence ahead of an anticipated first flight in June 2020. The RoCAF is slated to receive 66 T-5s to replace its ageing AIDC AT-3 trainers by 2026, while a light fighter AT-5 variant is intended to replace the service’s Northrop F-5E/F Tiger IIs.

24 Sep 19. US Air Force hosts Pitch Day for virtual reality training systems. The US Air Force (USAF) has hosted a Pitch Day to assess the feasibility of using commercially available virtual reality (VR) training systems in military applications. Robins Spark Cell and Air Force Sustainment Center Contracting (AFSC) located at Robins Air Force Base conducted the Inaugural Pitch Day at the Advanced Technology and Training Center in Warner Robins. The pitch day is an initial prototype effort and significantly reduces the time taken for the acquisition process.
Robins Spark Cell and AFSC aim to acquire VR technology for the 461st and 116th Aircraft Maintenance Squadrons working with the USAF’s Northrop Grumman-built E-8C Joint Surveillance Target Attack Radar System aircraft. The VR technology would provide training scenarios and modules for Team JSTARS members for aircraft maintenance. Team JSTARS is a joint manned force that provides airborne command and control, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance and combat support to commanders.
The objective of the effort to procure a VR training system is to improve the mission effectiveness of JSTARS aircraft maintenance personnel.
At the pitch day, the USAF awarded other transaction authority (OTA) contracts.
Robins AFSC operational services contracting chief Elizabeth Midkiff said: “The innovation and responsibility other transactions give back to the contracting officer and the evaluation team is refreshing and just what is needed to be able to execute an award faster and more efficiently.
“Pitch days allow the customer and contractors to interact, have live dialogue about the proposed solution, and receive meaningful feedback.”
A total of 15 companies were invited to pitch proposals on VR technology. The team then shortlisted some of them to give a presentation to a panel at the Pitch Day.
Robins Spark Innovation chief lieutenant colonel Jay Vizcarra said: “The combination of innovation initiatives and rapid agile contracting is the trend in the airforce as a whole and the innovation hub intends to work closely with AFSC Contracting at Robins to bring warfighter capabilities here today and the future faster for Robins.” (Source: airforce-technology.com)
23 Sep 19. RAAF demonstrates prompt global lift capability. The Royal Australian Air Force has partnered with the US Air Force to demonstrate the interoperability and global air lift capability of the C-17 Globemaster aircraft as part of Exercise Mobility Guardian 2019.
In the valley between the mammoth volcano Mount Rainier and snow-capped Mount Adams, personnel from 383 Contingency Response Squadron (383CRS) were flown into Selah Airstrip at Yakima Training Center as part of Exercise Mobility Guardian.
The team, made up of airfield engineers, medical and movements personnel, demonstrated the ability to plan and execute support to multinational forward operating bases and landing zones in the United States’ Pacific North-west.
Wing Commander Alan Brown, 383CRS Commanding Officer, said the exercise was also testing Air Force’s ability to execute an aeromedical evacuation in a coalition operation.
“This exercise is testing interoperability agreements and providing opportunities to take the lead on combined airfield operations, including securing, assessing, surveying, defending and handing over. We have been utilising deployed supply chains and establishing life-support systems,” WGCDR Brown said.
Wing Commander George Hodgson, the combat support group capability manager, said the exercise gave unique opportunities to learn and train with international partners in the air and on the ground.
“It has allowed us to observe and discuss the benefits of different ground equipment that is operated at a main operating base and also in an expeditionary setting,” WGCDR Hodgson said.
“We have been able to understand the interoperability issues and come up with solutions to recognise our abilities and what each nation can bring to the fight.”
Mobility Guardian’s exercise director, Lieutenant Colonel Joseph Monaco, said, “The future of warfare will be increasingly joint. This exercise is an unparalleled opportunity to develop joint-minded airmen who can integrate seamlessly with soldiers, sailors and marines to compete and, if necessary, win amidst great power adversaries.”
Mobility Guardian 2019 is set to be the US Air Force’s Air Mobility Command’s (AMC) largest full-spectrum readiness exercise to date.
Forty-six US aircraft joined aircraft from 29 international partners, along with more than 4,000 US and international Air Force, Army, Navy and Marine Corps aviators.
General Maryanne Miller, AMC commander, reinforced the importance of the exercise, saying, “Unmatched rapid global mobility exists because of the ready and resilient airmen who execute the mission day in and day out. Training exercises such as Mobility Guardian are critical to ensuring our airmen are able to keep AMC’s promise to always be there for those who depend on us, both today and tomorrow.”
Mobility Guardian is about strengthening partnerships and improving together as an integrated team. Interoperability between US forces and international partners, including Australia, will be developed throughout the exercise by testing forces against threats faced in the current fight and future, higher-end conflicts.
The exercise will emulate the contested, degraded and operationally limited environments mobility forces face now and in preparation for the future.
Scenarios were designed to elicit a real-world feel while focusing on all four AMC core competencies: the diverse missions of airlift, air refueling, aeromedical evacuation and global air mobility support.
Personnel will be challenged to improve their skills in forcible entry, airfield seizure, strategic deterrence and humanitarian relief operations.
23 Sep 19. Joint US-Allied Schriever space and cyber wargames wrap up. Australian, Canadian, New Zealand and British service personnel have joined their American counterparts in the 13th Air Force Space Command Wargames. Set in the year 2029, Schriever Wargame 2019 explored critical space and cyberspace issues in depth.

09 Sep 19. TRJE18 In Focus 14 – The Swedish Battle Group. The Red (North) Force Battle Group which advanced southwards on the easternmost axis during TRIDENT JUNCTURE 2018 was Swedish-led, writes Bob Morrison. Sweden is not a NATO member and has traditionally maintained its neutrality, but concerns of late over Russian Federation expansionism in the Black Sea region and fears that the Baltic Region may be next have led to both Sweden and its neighbour Finland cooperating closer with the Alliance on military training exercises.
On Exercise TRIDENT JUNCTURE 18 (TRJE18) Sweden formed the core of the third multinational OpFor (Opposing Forces) brigade on the north-south axis, running parallel to the Norwegian-Swedish border, between the town of Røros and the village of Drevsjø; both of these Norwegian population centres being easily accessible by road from Sweden. Finland joined this Swedish-led brigade to give it a multinational aspect and a Norwegian Home Guard Company gave additional support. The South (Blue) Force multinational brigade facing the Swedes and Finns consisted primarily of a German (lead) armoured battalion, Dutch and Norwegian mechanised battalions, a French light infantry battalion, and support arms.
The full breakdown of the Swedish-led TRJE18 brigade was: a Swedish Mechanised Infantry Battalion, with Stridsvagn 122 (Leopard 2A5) main battle tanks and Stridsfordon 90 (CV90) armoured infantry fighting vehicle; a combined Swedish/Finnish Motorised Infantry Battalion, with SISU Pasi wheeled armoured personnel carriers, a Swedish Recce Company with CV90s and an Unmanned Aerial Systems Squadron; a Swedish Combat Engineer Platoon, with BvS10 carriers and an armoured bridgelayer; a Swedish Artillery Battalion, with FH-77 BW L52 Archer 155mm self-propelled howitzers; a Swedish SHORAD (Short Range Air defence) Battery, with RBS 70 MANPADS transported by SISU Pasi; a field-deployed Swedish Role 1 Field Hospital; and a local Norwegian Home Guard Company.
On 5th November, F+1, after having spent the morning catching up with the Italian-led Blue Forces formation pushing north up the Orkla valley towards Kvikne, I turned around and headed eastwards in the direction of Sweden to try to find the Swedish-led Red Forces formation drawing back from the advancing German-led Blue Forces formation as I was keen to photograph the Stridsvagn 122 in the field for the first time. I was in luck as not only did I find the Swedish tanks, along with accompanying mechanised infantry from 42nd Mechanised Battalion, both from Skaraborg Regiment P4, but I also stumbled across the Role 1 Field Hospital; but that is something for another day.
The scope of TRIDENT JUNCTURE 18 was so wide, and the exercise took place over such a wide area, that even though the defence and counter-attack phases each took place over four days apiece it was not feasible to cover all six brigades and two amphibious task groups participating – though as those who have been following the series will have seen, I gave it my best shot. With only half a day to try to find the Swedish-led brigade in the field, and with the days noticeably getting shorter in November, I was regrettably unable to locate the Finnish Army contingent on this particular exercise but I am sure there will be other opportunities in the future.

25 Sep 19. Australian Forces practise air drop at Exercise Mobility Guardian. A combined team of the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) and the Australian Army has performed an air drop exercise during Exercise Mobility Guardian 2019 in the US.
The team dropped heavy equipment out of a RAAF C-17A Globemaster III strategic airlift aircraft.
The Air Mobility Training and Development Unit (AMTDU) and the Australian Army’s 176 Air Dispatch Squadron are currently participating in the Mobility Guardian exercise.
Hosted by the US Air Force’s 92nd Air Refuelling Wing at Fairchild Air Force Base, Washington, the mobility exercise started on 8 September.
The biennial training exercise involves more than 4,000 service members from 30 countries.
Members of the Australian Defence Force have been working as part of an integrated team comprising personnel from the US, the Royal Canadian Air Force and the New Zealand Defence Force.
The exercise served as an opportunity for AMTDU and 176 Squadron to work on standardising airdrop and drop zone procedures with the other participating countries, Squadron Leader Rickesh Sunwar noted.
Rickesh Sunwar said: “Mobility Guardian 19 is providing a unique opportunity to collaborate with our partners and enhance our interoperability to produce rapid global mobility effects in response to international crises.
“Our key objectives for the exercise are to validate the Air Force Interoperability Council air standard for container delivery systems, evaluate techniques and procedures for heavy equipment air drop and ensure combined drop zone operations and surveying.”
176 Squadron air dispatcher Lance Corporal Michaela Wray said that the exercise allowed the personnel to familiarise themselves with each other’s aircraft rigging, loading and drop zone procedures. Mobility Guardian features different training scenarios in contested, degraded and operationally limited environments. The scenarios include joint forcible entry, opening an air base, aeromedical evacuation and humanitarian relief support. (Source: airforce-technology.com)
