Representation of urban operations in military models and simulations

The US Military's involvement in urban operations has escalated significantly over the past several years. Though modeling and simulation (M&S) has played a large role in the development and refinement of army tactics, techniques and procedures, current modelling research for military operations in urban terrain (MOUT) is fragmented and inadequately resourced. Core physical models are judged to be insufficient as a foundation for simulation of urban operations. To combat our deficiencies, the Army Modeling and Simulation Office (AMSO) has formed "focus-area collaborative (FAC) teams". The Urban Operations FAC Team will direct all future urban operations modeling efforts, ensuring that new simulations credibly depict MOUT. Coordinated, coherent army research for urban M&S will reside in three main areas: physical models, terrain and behaviors. The overall purpose of the FAC team is to ensure that a coherent plan of research for urban M&S is formulated, documented and published.
