Tactical Engagement Simulation System (TESS)

Ravenswood's TESS is built with a modular design, allowing for easy adaptation to any training environment, from small-scale squad engagements to large, complex force-on-force operations. Whether you need individual or collective training, our systems can be tailored to meet the specific needs of any mission size or type.

• Customizable Components: Integrate individual soldiers, vehicles, and weapon systems with seamless interoperability.
• Scalable Architecture: Our system can scale to match your training requirements, from platoon-level drills to multi-brigade exercises.
• Seamless GFE Integration: Incorporate Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) for a fully integrated instrumented force-on-force training system that leverages your existing assets.
• Future-Proof Flexibility: Easily upgrade and expand your system as technology and training demands evolve.
• Fully Exportable & ITAR Compliant: Our TESS is designed to be fully exportable, ITAR compliant, and FMS-friendly, ensuring seamless international deployment and integration while adhering to all U.S. export control regulations.
• Instrumented Edge Devices for Enhanced Realism: Our TESS incorporates advanced edge devices like instrumented CBRNE detectors, medical kits, and wound location sensors, delivering detailed feedback on chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and explosive scenarios. This allows for more immersive training and more accurate casualty treatment simulations.
• Posture Tracking for Protection Assessment: Integrated posture tracking technology assesses soldier movements and stances in real-time, providing insights into exposure levels, cover usage, and overall protection during engagements, enhancing both training outcomes and tactical safety.
• Wireless Generic Vehicle Kits: Our wireless generic vehicle kits allow for easy installation on a wide range of military vehicles, enabling vehicle integration into training exercises without complex setup. These kits provide real-time data and engagement tracking, making them ideal for force-on-force and convoy training scenarios.
• Flexible and Scalable Vehicle Integration: Designed to work across various vehicle types, the wireless kits are scalable and adaptable, supporting the integration of both ground and aerial platforms into the training environment for a comprehensive combat simulation.

Ground Combat Vehicle – Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Live Training Solutions (LTS) Laser-less direct fire solution for combat vehicles. This technology can be tailored for non-line of site vehicles such as Indirect Fire Systems as well as Direct Fire combat vehicles. 

Direct Fire Hybrid man-worn solution– STE LTS solution that combines the laser-based MILES type force on force and non-laser engagement methods to minimize the training deficiencies that occur with laser only training. 

Instrumented Ancillaries include:

• CBRNE Masks – instrumented and report real time for more complete and effective training in a CBRNE training goal. 
• Posture Sensing – allows tracking of the Soldiers Posture; standing, kneeling, prone – this allows for realistic protection models and realistic casualty assessment in situations like indirect fire. 
• Mortar TESS – Fielded Mortar systems with laser-less and geo-pairing technology, that reuses the combat mortar, Bipod, Baseplate and Site. Utilizes the NABK for the flyout and this technology can be adapted for all indirect fire requirements. 
• TESS IEDs and Jamming Emulator – Allows for IEDs, and the jamming of the IEDs to be trained and reported in near real time to the EXCON, further enhancing training realism 
• Generic Wireless Sensors – both vehicle and dismount, allowing for flexibility and commonality between combat vehicle platforms, and allows freedom of movement by the Soldier by mounting sensors direct to MOLLE instead of the legacy H-Harness (Dismount system in prototype form)
