WARSIM supports U.S., S. Korean exercise

ORLANDO, Fla., Feb. 9 (UPI) -- Lockheed Martin announced a milestone for its simulation program following a successful debut during a U.S. Army command post exercise.

U.S. company Lockheed Martin says its Warfighters' Simulation, or WARSIM, program was recently used during a joint exercise with the Army's Second Infantry Division and the South Korean army.

According to a news release the WARSIM is "designed to integrate simulations into the Army's full-spectrum training."

Lockheed Martin says the joint command post exercise successfully provided more than 200 U.S. and Korean participants with realistic division results marking a milestone for the technology.

"It simulates the lethal and complex interactions of the battlefield and integrates ground, air, ballistic missile and intelligence models," Markee White, Lockheed Martin WARSIM program manager, said in a statement.

"WARSIM's ease of use was demonstrated by how quickly the Republic of Korea army participants were able to use the simulation in a coalition, multi-lingual environment."
