US Navy's New Facility To House Three Integrated Tactical Trainers

US Navy Center for Surface Combat Systems (CSCS) has set up Littoral Combat Ship Training Facility (LTF) at San Diego Naval Base.

Capt. E. Scott Pratt, Program Executive Office Littoral Combat Ship (PEO LCS) Fleet Introduction and Sustainment program manager highlighted some examples of technology and training that will reside in the new LTF. "The LTF will be home to three Independence-variant Integrated Tactical Trainers (ITT)," he said.

The ITT is comprised of a high-fidelity full mission bridge, a bridge wing trainer, a fully-functional combat system trainer, and a mission package trainer. Each trainer can be operated independently to focus on team training with that specific team.

"They can also be linked together to train all three teams in more complex missions and tasks." Pratt added.
