European Test Bed (ETB)

Overview

ETB is a missile defense training and warfare development event

designed to raise the bar for US missile defense of Europe

Initiated by action officers at US Naval Forces Europe’s

Commander’s Task Force (CTF) 64 and US Air Forces

Europe’s 603rd Air Operations Center (AOC)

Improve current operational TTPs by providing a venue to

examine current warfare concepts.

Allows real-time procedural updates for immediate testing

and analysis

Raises the baseline level of knowledge and proficiency for

key IAMD players

ETB is designed to be executed with a compact schedule and

maximum flexibility to adjust to the needs of the operators

Objectives

Elevate level of knowledge of US/NATO mission for

Operational Stakeholders in theater

Develop proficiency in Battle Management and TTP

develop

Refine and test EPAA Phase II Tactics, Techniques, and

Procedures (TTPs)

Generate discussion for development of EPAA Phase III

TTPs

European Test Bed (ETB) 17-2

Conducted 17-20 July 2017

Operators from 603rd, CTF-64, Aegis Ashore RO, USS

DONALD COOK, and MDA filled positions as: RADC,

IAMDO, UTCO, AAMDS RO, DDGs and THAAD

Originally scheduled as a four day event that included

operator training and 17 runs of various scenario

Value of hot wash-up as a group following each run

recognized early and extended to 45 minutes

reducing number of runs to 14

9

Parat Custos Vigili

ETB 17-2

Playbook provided to operators included ETB

objectives, defense designs, and Pre-Planned

Responses (PPRs)

Each scenario tested various components of defense

design and PPRs which helped develop a better

understanding of inputs to SPINS

PPR were tailored later in the week with operator

feedback from RADC down to firing units

Parat Custos VigiliIAMD Summit 3-5 May 2017 Briefer: Maj Ryan Jobman

European Test Bed Lessons Identified

Discussion Point 1: Test and verify a new set of TTPs.

Details: TTPs should be as simple as possible, based on clear PPRs, and should be

consistent throughout engagements.

Recommendation: Tacticians and operational planners should avoid complex

coordination schemes and on-the-fly shifts of responsibility of firing policy.

Discussion Point 2: Test and verify a new set of PPRs.

Details: IAMD System is most effective when employing PPRs based on permissive ROE.

Recommendation: Ensure new PPRs are aligned with permissive ROE.

Discussion Point 3: Discover limiting factors when engaging credible and legitimate threats.

Details: Introduction of a complex threat suite of countermeasures, raids and debris.

Recommendation: Design more rigorous and highly challenging scenarios.

Discussion Point 4: Contribute cross-service solutions to integration challenges.

Details: Challenges exist with joint, coalition and multi-national integration.

Recommendation: Incrementally integrate BMD/IAMD capable partners into future ETBs.

ETB 18-1

Scheduled January 2018

First ETB with NATO participation

First two days focused on NATO BMD Operations

Center (BMDOC)

BMDOC-like simulation will be set up at WPC

As in ETB 17-2 all operators co-located to conduct

hot-wash after every run

12

Parat Custos Vigili

EIAMDC will plan bi-annual ETB events

Garner NATO involvement

ETB 17-2 was a US only event

US-NATO observers at the WPC

ETB 18-1 will be a NATO event with the BMDOC

Incorporate 10th AAMDC (Patriot) involvement

Currently coordinating RT3 simulators

Reducing event cost

MDA personal minimized to provide acceptable risk

The Coalition Warrior Interoperability eXploration,

eXperimentation, eXamination, eXercise (CWIX) is the largest

annual NATO interoperability event held at the Joint Forces

Training Centre (JFTC) in Bydgoszcz, Poland

Designed to support the continuous improvement of

interoperability for the Federation

Ability to test in multiple NATO functional areas

I-SIM interoperability testing

Real-time / Operator-in-the-Loop ballistic missile defense

simulation system for domestic and international use

Suitable for wargaming and defense concepts & analysis

The DIS and TDL capabilities have slowly been added over

the last 3 years

CWIX is a great venue to test these expanded capabilities

System Problem Reports (SPRs)

were submitted to MDA for I-SIM

based upon previous CWIX

events
