Brandon Griffis, a military analyst and subject matter expert with the Capability Program Executive Simulation, Training and Instrumentation (CPE STRI) Synthetic Training Environment – Live Training Systems (STE-LTS), tests the technology of the STE-LTS Individual Kits (SLIK) during Soldier Touchpoint 12 (STP 12) at the Kilbee Ranch in Geneva, Florida, on Jan. 30. The SLIK system modernizes Soldier systems with an open architecture that uses wireless devices to eliminate heavy harnesses, reducing load and ensuring future compatibility with new technologies like advanced small arms. The goal of STP 12 was for CPE STRI and STE-LTS leaders to evaluate vendor-provided direct fire and assess the performance of these new systems in comparison to the legacy Instrumentable-Multiple Integrated Laser Engagement System (I-MILES) laser system. Vendors taking part in STP 12 were Cole Engineering Services, Inc., General Dynamics Mission Systems, and FN America. Each offered unique and innovative approaches to improving direct fire engagements in force-on-force training. (U.S. Army photo by Donnie Ryan)
