CATS Exercise Control Simulation Software

CATS Excon simulation software

CATS Excon (exercise control) collects and evaluates data from instrumented exercises. All incoming data from movement, battle, and tactical radio is recorded for During and After Action Review.

CATS Excon caters to brigade size combat teams with One-way (MILES) or Two-way laser engagement simulators. Exercises can be planned, prepared, performed and evaluated. Data is stored, analysed, and presented in a network of clients.
