Abstract

This research service is an overview of the North American distributed mission operations (DMO) market and offers strategic analysis and forecasts from 2006 to 2012. The market is defined as American and Canadian competency-based training incorporating live, virtual, and constructive simulations for the warfighter to train collectively or individually. It optimizes mission rehearsal and readiness by offering on-demand inter-team training through networked full and non-full motion flight simulators.

Research Overview

This Frost & Sullivan research service titled North American Distributed Mission Operations Market provides in-depth revenue forecasts, U.S. DoD RDT&E budgets, and analysis of major American and Canadian DMO programs. In this research service, Frost & Sullivan's expert analyst thoroughly examine the following markets: mission training centers, distributed mission operations networks, full motion simulators, non-full motion simulators, military aircraft, and training outsourcing.

Technologies

The following technologies are covered in this research:
  • Full motion simulators
  • Non-full motion simulators
  • Mission training centers
  • Distributed mission operations networks
  • Military aircraft
Market Overview

Low Budgets and High Operating and Maintenance Costs Increase Demand for DMO

The future of North American military flight simulation is in distributed mission operations (DMO). Diminishing budgets have justified increased investment in cost-effective simulation and synthetic training over expensive live training. DMO also mitigates increasing operating and maintenance costs of aircraft flown by synthetically replicating live training.

Lead systems integrators are innovating DMO solutions such as mission training centers and mobile training trailers to satisfy the training needs of both new and in-service aircraft. DMO overcomes training and resource constraints prevalent in live training by connecting pilots and instructors in various locations around the world on deployable simulators to train in live, virtual, and constructive environments. In addition to live feeds from ground sensors to airborne warning and control systems (AWACS), virtual injects and scenarios that emulate real combat situations are now readily possible in DMO, which will enhance warfighter preparedness, previously constrained by ‘set gaming’ and computing limitations.

UAVs and Non-DMO Compliant Platforms Spur Growth in DMO Market

The integration of air-to-ground mission platforms such as unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) training systems is crucial to North American DMO. This represents the paradigm shift from air-to-air to air-to-ground warfare fought by American and Canadian warfighters in the global war on terror. "Although fourth-generation tactical aircraft such as the F-15, F-16, and F/A-18 have been successfully made DMO compliant, other platforms including the fifth-generation F-22 Raptor have yet to be integrated into American and Canadian DMO" observes the analyst. "Such platforms, especially UAVs such as the MQ-1B Predator and RQ-4 Global Hawk can create substantial growth opportunities for market participants."

The advent of fifth-generation aircraft into the U.S. inventory has called for a new generation of simulators, devices, and trainers that account for new capabilities in embedded systems, intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance (ISR), and suppression of enemy air defenses/destruction of enemy air defenses (SEAD/DEAD). "Canada and the United States are undergoing essential mid-life upgrades (MLUs) and operation capabilities upgrades (OCUs) including airframe refurbishment and new avionics/embedded systems," observes the analyst. "As these new and upgraded platforms require improved training solutions and interfaces, DMO is the answer."
