Highly Realistic and Tactically Relevant
JVT was developed through a combination of commercial gaming developers and Joint Fires Subject Matter Experts, along with innovative commercial technology business inputs. This user-friendly system is easily upgraded to ensure continued relevance in an environment of rapidly advancing TTPs (Tactics, Techniques and Procedures), weapons systems, and ordnance.
Highly Realistic and Tactically Relevant
Flexible and Scalable
Designed with the warfighter in mind, JVT can be used as a single station VR/XR training simulator, or it can be used in a 2D laptop mode that supports procedural and team training as well as mission rehearsals. Training scenarios can be built ahead of time and saved to increase training efficiency.
Flexible and Scalable
Networking and Interoperability
JVT systems can be networked together for up-to battalion levels fires training. Communicating through DIS/HLA connection JVT can be networked with other simulators to create a live virtual training environment.
Networking and Interoperability

USMC

"The ease of use, realism, and ability to quickly adapt the [JVT] software have made it an easy choice as the primary program for TACP simulation during WTI."

Joint Fires Training Lead

"The mobility of the [JVT] system is outstanding - it's very user friendly, which means that it takes 10 minutes to develop a scenario and be able to execute that training, versus current systems, which are very complicated and not user friendly."

Senior Staff NCO
USMC

"I had no idea that this [JVT] existed in the Marine Corps."
