The WES capability was acquired by the CA to address the deficiency in simulating realistic weapon effects during force-on-force field training exercises. The WES system provides soldiers the opportunity to train in the way that they would fight, utilizing actual weapons and vehicle platforms as they would be used in theatre and on deployments. This capability provides data and products for effective after-action reviews to enhance the commanders’ ability to train and evaluate the readiness of their troops in both an urban and rural training environment. There are four (4) instrumented static sites (with fixed exercise control center) located in Wainwright, Alberta, Gagetown, New Brunswick, Petawawa, Ontario and Valcartier, Quebec in addition to a mobile capability which can be used anywhere within Canada, including thetwo (2) non-instrumented sites, one located in Edmonton, Alberta and the other in Shilo, Manitoba. The intent of this project is to modernize the existing WES capability potentially addressing: equipment obsolescence; updated operational requirements; and advancements in technology and international standards (such as those being developed under UCATT).
