Synthetic 'Radar'
The 5DT Air Defense Training Simulator is fully integrated with the 5DT Integrated Virtual Battlefield (5DT IVB). A synthetic virtual radar forms part of the 5DT IVB. This radar can be placed at any position in the virtual world. In this case the radar screen is superimposed on an aerial image of the battlefield. As the virtual launcher is rotated, a direction vector rotates on the radar screen. Most SAM systems work in conjunction with a radar system. The synthetic virtual radar presents interesting training possibilities. The radar screen may be positioned at the same (virtual) site as the SAM system. It may also be positioned in an early warning position. In the latter case the instructor may warn the trainee of advancing targets. The instructor may also decide not to warn the trainee, so that the trainee will have to rely on audio cues only.
