“We’re also using the TESS system (Tactical Engagement Simulator System), which is basically a part of MILES,” explained Chief Warrant Officer 3 (CW3) Luis Cardona, lead instructor pilot at B Company Sokol until 2023. “It’s a camera that has an IR component to it that pairs with the MSMODIM (Modular SMart Onboard Data Interface Module) and the MILES system that allows us to engage and be engaged by the ground forces. We have some screens on board and with the camera we can zoom in and out, acquire a target and fire a laser. The forces on the ground, and also our aircraft, have a light on board. When you’re hit, this light will start flashing. Our operations group are the referees for this fight. They can see everyone moving across the battlefield and they are able to identify which kills occurred. So if Sokol takes out a tank or a vehicle, they might not know what hit them. As soon the light starts flashing, they will stop and then their OC (observer coach), who is with them, receives a message from the referee: ‘You are just killed by an attack aviation asset!’ The system also allows the players to see later on what killed them via the assisting Observer Coach/Trainer during the debriefing – for instance, a machine gun, tank or a missile.”
