Operation Blended Warrior (OBW) is a collaborative Live, Virtual, Constructive (LVC) event conducted between DoD and Industry for the purpose of uncovering and documenting the challenges to rapidly developing and integrating a training LVC environment. Capitalizing on the phenomenal capabilities demonstrated at I/ITSEC by our industry and academia partners, OBW utilized a networked architecture to allow those capabilities to be integrated in a fashion representative of their real-life intended purpose. In this manner, I/ITSEC attendees were able to see industry capabilities in a highly representative environment, but talk to LVC experts about the challenges (and potential solutions) associated with integrating the various capabilities together. Whether the challenge to LVC is standards, database interoperability, cyber, performance measurement, cross-domain solutions, or distributed after action review, OBW was able to help attendees and participants better understand and demonstrate those challenges. During this panel discussion, leaders from the past OBW events will describe LVC challenges and initiatives addressed during the planning, integration, and execution of this
I/ITSEC Special Event.
