The simulator provides realistic training and mission rehearsal for crews of the EA-37B, the US Department of Defense’s only long-range, stand-off, electromagnetic warfare jamming platform.
Developed with Textron Systems Corporation, the CCMCS improves warfighter readiness by providing a high-fidelity, simulated tactical environment that replicates complex and dynamic scenarios they can encounter during real-world operations. It provides highly effective training in a safe, controlled environment that reduces the risk and cost of live-flight training.
“The Compass Call Mission Crew Simulator helps warfighters develop their expertise and maximize the effectiveness of the EA-37B, a critical mission system for dominating the electromagnetic spectrum,” said Stephanie Fehling, director of Electronic Attack Solutions at BAE Systems. “We’re driving warfighter readiness and helping EA-37B crews prepare for missions that require spectrum superiority.”
The CCMCS provides the same controls, displays, and systems as the EA-37B aircraft. It provides crew members with essential training on electronic warfare operations, mission planning and execution, resource management, communication, decision-making and teamwork. The simulator is available around the clock to support training and mission rehearsals, reducing stress on the EA-37B fleet and improving aircraft availability for operations.
The mission of the EA-37B is to disrupt adversaries’ communication, radar, navigation systems, and air defenses, restricting enemy battlespace coordination and command and control capabilities. It serves as a force multiplier that increases the survivability and lethality of other allied forces.
BAE Systems produces the EA-37B mission system in Hudson, New Hampshire, USA.
