Cubic Global Defense to demonstrate expanded
capabilities of existing systems for effective and efficient
mission readiness
Cubic Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation
(NYSE: CUB), today announced it will highlight its industry-leading
P5 Combat Training System (P5 CTS) and other innovative air combat
training solutions at the annual Tailhook Symposium 2016 in Reno,
Nevada from September 8 – 10. The P5 CTS is a major component of
the Department of the Navy’s Tactical Combat Training System
(TCTS). Tailhook Symposium is an annual conference hosted by The
Tailhook Association, a non-profit organization recognized as the
premier supporter of Naval Aviation, to feature the latest
innovations in aircraft technology.
“At Tailhook, Cubic will showcase our most important P5 CTS/TCTS
enhancements that we believe will open up dialogue with our Naval
Aviation fleet customers on new and tactically relevant means to
train to the demanding missions aviators must execute. In addition,
we will be onsite to discuss the future of effective Live, Virtual
and Constructive (LVC) training,” said Dave Buss, president of
Cubic Global Defense. “Cubic engages with end users to assess
current training capabilities and educate them about the
possibilities of the next-generation training environment.”
Cubic will demonstrate the following air combat training
solutions:
- P5 Combat Training System
(CTS/TCTS): P5 CTS relays Time, Space, and Positioning
Information (TSPI) between participating aircraft and range systems
while internally recording weapon events during training sorties.
This enables real-time, live monitoring and recorded mission data
of air-to-air, air-to-ground and surface-to-air training scenarios
for post mission analysis.
- F-35 P5 Internal Subsystem: The
F-35 P5 Internal Subsystem (IS) provides the P5 CTS capability to
the JSF program. Unlike previous wing-mounted ACTS pods, this
secure and internal training solution allows the F-35 to retain
low-observable characteristics.
- Bandit Board: The Cubic Bandit
Board is an integrated low-cost tactical training capability that
transmits the live P5 CTS display onto a kneeboard tablet of a
pilot in an aggressor “Red Air” aircraft. With this innovative
enhancement, “Red Air” now has a high-fidelity, real-time picture
of all players in a combat training exercise, transforming a
second- or third-generation aircraft into a formidable
opponent.
- Secure LVC Advanced Training
Solutions: As the industry System Integrator for the Air Force
Research Lab’s Secure LVC Advanced Training Environment (SLATE)
Advanced Technology Demonstration (ATD), Cubic will support the
development and demonstration of a new secure waveform with
tactical aircraft and range ground stations as part of a LVC system
for air combat training.

Resort, Reno, Nevada. Follow Cubic Global Defense on Twitter at
