Book excerpt: The OSD, Central Test and Evaluation Program (CTEIP) is tasked to provide a coordinated process for making joint investments in defense T & E to offset the challenges presented by declining investments in test assets and increasing test requirements. Under CTEIP sponsorship, the Navy and Air Force are jointly developing three Joint Installed System Test Facility (JISTF) enhancements that are based on dynamic virtual reality simulation technology. The three enhancements are the Infrared Sensor Stimulator (IRSS), Generic Radar Target Generator, and Joint Communications Simulator. The JISTF installations will occur at the Air Combat Environment Test and Evaluation Facility, NAWCAD Patuxent River, Maryland, and the Avionics Test and Integration Complex, Air Force Flight Test Center, Edwards Air Force Base, California. These enhancements will provide each ISTF with the capability to simultaneously test multiple avionics and sensor subsystems installed on an aerospace System Under Test (e.g., manned and unmanned aircraft) in a ground test environment. The ISTF enhanced test capabilities will be used to evaluate multisensor data fusion/correlation and subsystems' interoperability for IR sensors, RADAR, GPS, and Communications and Data Link subsystems.
