Simulations will support all existing and developing weapon platforms and capabilities in all regions of the globe. When Marines are able to game a multitude of scenarios, they can make necessary, educated assessments to validate or adjust force design-related decisions. Through the wargaming center, Marines will be able to run “excursions” and iterations while controlling specific factors.
“Constructing this framework produces the added benefit of being able to investigate hypotheticals, concepts and technologies in a timely and cost effective manner.” Lademan, Ph.D., technical director for the Wargaming Division at MCWL. “The true value proposition of wargaming lies in the construction of a competitive framework allowing the thinking enemy to confront and thwart his opponent and thereby challenge concepts, capabilities and force design,” said William J. The resulting wargames will provide data and analytics to inform decisions affecting force development, force management, system functionality and service functionality.
The wargaming center’s capabilities will enable users to identify issues, consider objectives, and scope and analyze the problems. “It will also support the Corps’ ability to wargame with the Office of the Secretary of Defense and our partners.” “The Marine Corps Wargaming and Analysis Center will serve the Commandant of the Marine Corps, Headquarters Marine Corps staff, and the Operating Forces,” said Sharleene Prieur, MCSC’s deputy program manager for the Wargaming Capability. Eric Smith, deputy commandant, a Combat Development and Integration deputy commandantĪs part of its mission to acquire information technology and ground weapon systems for the Marine Corps, Marine Corps Systems Command is working with CD&I, MCWL and industry to build the facility and procure the required capabilities. “.The data that comes from such wargames enables us to more rapidly determine which capabilities we will need for future fights." Lt. Once established, the wargaming center will comprise an auditorium, gaming classrooms, conference room and other spaces to support wargaming needs. “A wargaming center at Quantico ensures that these wargames take place at the home of Combat Development, the Warfighting Laboratory, Marine Corps University and our Acquisitions Command, and ensures that this purpose-built facility is easily accessible for all those in the National Capitol Region who similarly need this capability." “The data that comes from such wargames enables us to more rapidly determine which capabilities we will need for future fights."
Eric Smith, deputy commandant, Combat Development and Integration. "In order to stay ahead of peer competitors, it is vital that the Marine Corps conduct constant wargames,” said Lt. Simulations will offer a realistic representation of future operating environments. Located aboard Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia, the 100,000-square-foot facility is expected to house more than a dozen wargames each year, including two large-scale, 250-person exercises. Once complete, the Marine Corps Wargaming and Analysis Center will enable better equipped and trained Marines, and improved decision-making on the battlefield. The center is expected to break ground in fiscal year 2021 and will be uniquely designed to leverage modern simulation technologies to enhance the wargaming experience for Marines. The Marine Corps will soon build a state-of-the-art facility to better visualize the threat environment, gain competitive advantages and simulate future operating environments.
