Simulation-based remote debriefing for Red Flag missions

The Red Flag Measurement and Debriefing System reconstructs a mock air battle. A portable prototype system, the remote debriefing tool, helps merge the real and virtual environments. The research effort described by the authors investigated two areas not previously addressed by others: first, the inclusion of live participants in the synthetic environment, and second, a stealth viewer tailored to a specific task, in this case air-to-air combat training and debriefing. The stealth viewer supports the real-time extraction of important parameters related to air-to-air engagements, such as shot parameters including closing velocity and aspect angle
