Overview of a Joint Mission Infrastructure The capability to test in a joint environment is needed throughout a system’s lifecycle. Figure B.2 illustrates the progression of a developmental system through the evaluation continuum from concept development to system retirement. Integration of the system with the joint mission infrastructure, using constructive models, virtual simulations and live systems, provides the persistent joint environment and tools for concept development and design, system development and DT&E, and OT&E. The common technical framework links the developmental systems with subsystems, simulations, and other necessary resources. This framework uses live test instrumentation requirements as its criteria for establishing common data descriptors, formats, data rates, and data structures to be used throughout the test process regardless of simulated, live, or mixed testing. The technical framework provides for reuse of analysis tools and techniques and assures data consistency and data comparability throughout acquisition. Data consistency enables the long desired systems engineering goal of model-testmodel – then build. B-2 For Official Use Only Appendix B
For Official Use Only Testing in a Joint Environment Roadmap Figure B.2. Evaluation Continuum with Constructive, Virtual and Live Resources Each joint mission environment will resemble a live, real world, single-site range, and will be configured and managed in a very similar manner. However, this “virtual range” will generally be distributed both geographically and organizationally to access the resources needed for testing in the joint environment, as required by relevant joint missions, operational architectures, and desired system attributes from the CDD and CPD. The components linked via the common technical framework for a given test event will consist of resources specific to the particular test. These will include live platforms operating on open air ranges, complete systems in integrated system test facilities, and constructive models or virtual/HITL simulations. The standing persistent test infrastructure capabilities will include a data archive capability and object model data descriptions that are used across all tests. The notional joint mission infrastructure is depicted in Figure B.3. B-3 For Official Use Only Appendix B
