Is JETS a Program of Record?

JETS is currently a DoD funded research and development program. If warranted, it will transition to a program of record in the near future.

Who/what organization is driving the development of JETS?

Advocated by the Defense Health Agency (DHA), which supports capabilities defined in the Joint Force Health Protection (JFHP) Concept of Operations (CONOPS) and addresses identified gaps in the JFHP Initial Capability Document (ICD).

Who are the JETS stakeholders?

Stakeholders are considered those with an interest or concern in JETS.  Anyone, from learners through operational commanders, could be considered a stakeholder.

What level of effort would it take for my training center to adopt JETS?

The JETS system uses High Level Architecture (HLA) protocols, which is an IEEE standard. Adopting JETS requires that individual simulation systems become compatible with HLA and use the MMS FOM. This can be done in several ways, including by direct integration to HLA, or by using a bridge solution such as a REST API bridge. Development effort depends on the complexity and depth of integration required for each system. 

What is the purpose of the extended demonstration?

Phase II of the JETS research program demonstrated the ability for numerous systems to share data in real time across the federation using the MMS FOM.  Phase III of the research expands the scope to include multiple synchronous and asynchronous training sites, incorporating tactical and logistical software. The extended demonstration is the culmination of the Research and Development project to demonstrate successful program implementation.
