Joint
National Training Capability (JNTC)
U.S.
Joint Forces Command’s Joint
Warfighting Center (JWFC) continues to develop and implement the Joint National
Training Capability (JNTC).
USJFCOM hosts two of the three enabling capabilities of
DoD's Training Transformation initiative: JNTC and the Joint
Knowledge Development and Distribution Capability (JKDDC).
The third enabling capability is the Joint Assessment and
Enabling Capability (JAEC), led by the Office of the Secretary
of Defense (OSD) Personnel and Readiness Office.
JNTC uses a mix of live, virtual and constructive models
and simulations in an integrated network of over 40 persistent
training sites to provide the most realistic collective joint
mission experience possible.
In addition, this capability provides training and accreditation
support with a total effort of over 700 man-years in 20 states.
It promises an enhanced way to train that offers joint forces
and the services a potential spectrum of live, virtual and
constructive (L-V-C) training environments.
• Live – real
people in real locations using real equipment
•
Virtual Simulation – real people in simulators
•
Constructive Simulation – simulated entities in a simulated
environment
The L-V-C environment combines existing exercises with live
forces, creating a more realistic training experience.
JNTC creates an environment where every level of training
is orchestrated in a joint context to provide the highest
level of training for seamless future military operations.
The long-term mission of the initiative is to incorporate
service branches, interagency and multinational coalition
partners.
By 2009, the goal is to have the capability to train any
audience by linking command and control, training facilities,
ranges and simulation centers throughout the world.
