CFACC ACE

CFACC Ace is a revolutionary cognitive readiness and decision-making skills trainer that will enable leaders to experience the personal and operational complexities of conducting an expeditionary air campaign. Trainees can improve their mission-essential competencies by practicing the key decision making skills needed to successfully conduct an air campaign in a challenging coalition environment.

CFACC Ace is an effective, affordable desktop simulation that focuses on key personal operational-level decisions: risk assessments, asset allocations, and personal battle rhythm. Trainees input resource allocation and level-of-effort guidance to the simulation in a format based on the daily Air Tasking Order cycle. Then trainees provide operational-level guidance to manage the following:

Air interdiction

Flexible targeting

Defensive combat air patrol

Close air support

Intelligence resource allocation

Public affairs

Information operations

Area air defense

Time-sensitive targeting

Combat search and rescue

Theater air & ballistic missile defense

Network attack and defense.

Trainees face a challenging coalition environment and a capable enemy, who has varying personality and leadership traits, strategies, and priorities. CFACC Ace is unique. It is the first trainer designed using a comprehensive cognitive task analysis, based on lessons learned from past and present air campaigns and extensive interviews with current and former Air Force and Navy air component commanders, which identified the complete process a commander of a combined forces air component uses to make critical personal decisions and assessments.
