EXERCISE CETATEA 2019
The NATO Modelling & Simulation Centre of Excellence participated in the exercise CETATEA 2019, a multinational exercise held, this year, in Rasnov (Romania).
During the 2019 edition, units from Bulgaria, Italy, Moldova, Poland and Romania got together to train their respective Communications and Information System (CIS) units to comply with the provisioning of CIS services to verify and validate the compliancy with Federated Mission Networking (FMN) spiral 2 specifications.
The NATO M&S CoE deployed and tested the Cyber HQ Simulation Services (CHESS) application and the the Synthetic Situational Awarness for Cyber (S2AC) tool, developed by the CoE in order to improve the quality and effectiveness of the Commander and Staff training and exercise experience by exploiting M&S in the Cyber domain within a FMN alike environment.
With the contribution and support of the Italian Company Leonardo, it was also demonstrated the Modelling and Simulation as a Service (MSaaS) infrastructure (Ocean) capability. This capability connected the exercise field to the NATO M&S CoE – Rome federating the CoE’s Open SimLab with the Romanian Cyber Range. Furthermore providing the CHESS and S2AC services to stimulate NATO and Romania C2 systems with Cyber Effects.
It was also demontrated the Cyber Security Simulation Environment (CSSE) platform, a Communication, Networking and Cyber M&S Framework that enable also to model and simulate cyber electro magnetic activites CEMA against real military radio systems in Constructive-Live Scenarios.
During the exercise it was also deployed a 3D Immersive platform (Morpheus, by Leonardo ) demonstrating the capabilities to support individual training on specific CIS and JTAC operational scenarios.
