MARCUS is a comprehensive constructive simulation including detailed modelling of conventional combat and urban operations, combat service support, NBC and electronic warfare modelling, air warfare and air defence simulation, disaster relief, stability and support operation.

It is a simulation driver for multilevel training of corps / brigade / battalion commanders and their staff in CAX (Computer Assisted eXercise).

• It trains corps, brigade and battalion commanders and their subordinate unit leaders to plan and prepare to fight.
• It provides realistic results of combat operations to make trainees learn and practice all of NATO's command and control procedures.
• It models both conventional combat operations and OOTW (Operations Other Than War).

It also provides an environment to teach and practice the battalion and company commanders, battalion staffs and subordinate unit leaders individually or in a team how to plan, make decisions and prepare to fight.

The simulation provides representa-tions of all aspects of the battlefield, physical objects and phenomena, as well as aspects of human behaviour, and has a user-friendly, easy to use menu-driven, windows-oriented user interface.

It features mixed high resolution representation (entities and aggregated company sized units).

Corps level simulation features mainly aggregated company sized units for the whole playbox (300x300 km) and entities for an included, selected, changeable brigade level area (100x100 km).

The MARCUS simulation in full extent runs on

• 50 Windows XP® PC and on one or two Windows computational server in the Simulation Centre, distributed workstation groups at every brigades (using ISDN2 connections).
• Distaff Control Sets (remote control and monitoring workstations) at the General Staff and the Land Forces Headquarters creating a unified virtual battlefield.

MARCUS capacity is about to keep 40 corps, brigade and/or battalion exercises (3-5 days) in a year with preparation and AAR procedures altogether.

Zeus 2 is a multi-mode artillery tactical and fire control constructive simulation used for teaching and training artillery battalion, battery officers and reconnaissance soldiers in team or in personal exercises.

It is a teaching and training tool for the artillery battalion/battery commanders.

ZEUS 2 is a simulation to teach and practice the battalion and battery commanders individually or in a team how to plan, make decisions and execute fire missions.

During the execution it provides realistic results of the fire missions calculating the terrain, target properties, the preset weather and ballistic condition.

It is a training tool for reconnais-sance soldiers and fire observation officers.

Officers can observe and measure the targets and clouds of explosions, adjust the fire.
Practice the co-operation with the battery commander

It is a connecting device for participation in a CAX .

Connects to Marcus CAX simulation, develops team spirit between the trainees and the land force commanders participating in combat or OOTW scenario CAX training via the usage of ISDN interface.

MTR is an operation level military planning and execution support computer aided expert system.
It facilitates the whole military planning and decision making process on computers, and gives invaluable help to the military leaders during the execution of the prepared plans. Moreover it can be used to help the planning of CAX exercise scenarios and teaching of the military planning process as well.

It includes several features such as:

• The current or planned operational situation is drawn on digital or scanned map or on satellite image using standard APP-6A symbology. Scenarios can contain any desired formations, weapon’s capability and force deployment in the battlefield for 16 different participants, including the own forces and the enemy.
• Representation of the meteorological factors: light condition, wind, precipitation, temperature, cloud-base.
• Digital terrain database: mixed raster and vector representation, usage of different standards (NIMA-DFAD/DTED, VMAP, DXF, SHP)
• Tactical database with almost 2000 objects: armament, equipment, live forces and vehicles for NATO, FSU and other countries. All objects have a number of attributes.
• Force structure, order of battle handling (tandem peace-time and war-time structure, dislocation, readiness class and time, manpower, equipment, stock data, typical structures)
• Terrain assessment functions: trafficability, line of sight calculation, terrain cover considering the dynamic terrain.
• Tactical assessment functions: force ratio calculations, attrition estimation.
• Logistical assessment functions: calculation of logistical capabilities, trip time.
• Data mining, surplus/deficiencies data.
• Staff work, decision making support: handling and tracking of commanders’ timetable, handling of documents and decision support matrices.
• Handling of the planning and execution phases, layers: courses of actions, decision points, assessments of the possibilities of the planned operations, handling phase slideshows.
• Distributed planning.
• Document templates and report generation support.

Other features

• Easy customization: user defined echelons and force structures, user defined workstation assignment, quick modification of the digitized terrain and map database.
• User-friendly, menu-driven, windows-oriented user interface.
• Context sensitive help .
• Multilingual, languages can be used simultaneously.
• Data security: user identification, logging of access data.
• Connection to other systems.
• Easy archive handling.

KRONOS 3D virtual tactical simulator is a platoon level “serious game”.

KRONOS provides an environment where the crews of infantry, tank and antitank units can exercise their jobs in a team or as an individual in a realistically visualized world.
Squad and platoon leaders and their subordinates can be trained how to cooperate in a combat.
It also provides detailed functions for vehicles’ crew members, especially for the gunners with highly realistic weapon characteristics.

• Armored personnel carriers and infantry fighting vehicles, e.g.: BTR-80, BTR-80/A, BRDM-2;
  
• antitank missiles, e.g.: Fagot (Spigot), Metis (Saxhorn);
  
• self-propelled antitank missile
  
• complexes, e.g.: Konkurs (Spandrel);
  
• gun-howitzers, e.g.: D-20;
• tanks, e.g.: T-72;
• all-terrain utility vehicles;
• transport vehicles;

The visualization deals with

• Terrain database: using standard digital maps combined with ae-rial/satellite photos from any-where in the Earth
• Equipment, military vehicles, photo realistic models (expand-able model library)
• Visualization of the main control-ling instruments and indicators
• Lifelike visualization of the optical devices
• Observation possibilities are real-istically limited
• Trajectory of fired projectiles and antitank missiles, muzzle flashes
• Place of hits, explosions, impacts; destruction, injury
• Visual effects
  • smoke screen,
  • dust and smoke,
  • sight of night vision goggles
  • illuminating projectiles

The modeling deals with:

• Firing equipment operational characteristics
  • controlling devices, feedback lamps,
  • rate of fire,
  • speed of operations and operational constrains
  • distance measuring,
  • sight settings.
• Projectile properties
  • zeroing, controllability,
  • ballistics, correction factors,
  • probability of hit/kill, dispersion,
  • antitank and destruction effect.
• Stabilizer (tank), flares, modeling break-downs
• Vehicle driving
  • vision through prisms
  • simplified driving with a joystick
  • modeling vehicle movement abilities and dynamic effects
• Implementation of the meteorological effects
• Generating sound and noise effects

Using KRONOS the following training topics and team can be practised:

• firing instruction
• tactics, combat service
• logistics, (marches, ammunition resupply, ...)
• fire observer, fire support group
• air liaison team
• recon troops
• other special teams

KRONOS is installed on a PC network environment without using expensive weapon and vehicle mockups.

KRONOS is a reconfigurable system. Different equipments can be simulated on the same hardware configuration and different units can use them after minimal reconfiguration.
