The Army’s future training capability is the Synthetic Training Environment (STE). The STE will revolutionize Army training by leveraging the virtual and gaming industries to provide the repetition necessary at the Point of Need to improve Soldier lethality and survivability. The STE will provide the Army and services a usable, realistic, and complex training environment that will allow units to improve readiness through repetition, achieving mastery of warfighting skills from Soldier and squad through the highest Army echelons. The synthetic environment will replicate the full range of operations; weapon systems; unit, civilian, and enemy behaviors; environmental conditions; and Mission Command processes. This capability will address the challenges of training to fight in multiple domains (land, air, maritime, space, and cyberspace). STE will converge current live, virtual, constructive, and gaming environments to enable units to train at home station, institutions, armories, deployed locations, and other points of need. It will adhere to common standards, open architecture, common terrain and authoritative data, ensuring the ability to more easily integrate new and better technologies over time.
