USJFCOM Public Affairs
(SUFFOLK, VA. - Sept. 11, 2006) -- U.S. Joint
Forces Command's (USJFCOM)
Joint Experimentation Directorate here
and 12 multinational partners began the latest phase
in Urban
Resolve
(UR) 2015 experimentation here today.
The
Urban Resolve series helps improve the warfighters' ability
to operate and control the urban environment, isolate the
adversary, and maintain urban stability by denying the
enemy access to
physical or information resources from which he could conduct
de-stabilizing operations.
Running
through Sept. 22, this second of three UR2015 human-in-the-loop
(HITL) events let
the wargamers
control the experimentation to the point allowing them
to inject battle field scenarios at any time instead
of simply
observing
and analyzing unchangeable, pre-programmed
scenarios.
As
ongoing experimentation, UR2015 seeks solutions to close
joint urban warfighting capability gaps.
Once
those participating in the experimentation identify those
solutions
they pass them to warfighters to help them improve
their ability to gain control of, and maintain, the urban
environment
in which they are fighting.
