The Fleet Anti-Submarine Warfare Command (FLTASWCOM) trains Atlantic and Pacific Strike Groups in the area of integrated Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW). FLTASWCOM training events are flown on both instrumented ranges and in open ocean areas and may last up to 12 hours, and frequently involve up to ten air, surface, and submarine participants. Evaluating these events involves simultaneous real time observation, assessment, and analysis of both individual and multi-platform cooperative missions. The team of evaluators must track, record, assess, and analyze the participants' performance in real time. The evaluators must produce a timely debrief for the participants, provide an in depth analysis for their leaders, and use the evaluation results to tailor and improve the training process.

Tactical Warfare Instructor Support Environment (TacWISE) is an integrated set of training support tools that has been successfully employed to evaluate performance of Navy Strike Groups for over three years. Assessors and mentors have been located at sea, in the air and on shore. Simultaneous evaluations were performed on each individual ship in a STRIKE GROUP, in aircraft participating in the same event and from shore based observation points. Results and lessons learned from applications in Strike Group-level ASW and surface warfare training exercises will be discussed.
