The Smart Onboard Data Interface Module (SMODIM) is an integrated device once used by the United States Army and foreign militaries for live simulated weapons training on military platforms. The SMODIM was the primary component of the Longbow Apache Tactical Engagement Simulation System (LBA TESS) that provides weapons systems training and collective Force-on-Force live training participation.[1]
TESS was an advanced weapons training system developed for the AH-64 Apache to support force-on-force and force-on-target live training at U.S. Army Combat Training Centers (CTCs), Aviation Home Stations, and deployed locations.[2] TESS integrates with aircraft and ground vehicles to provide collective opposing force participation in live training.
The Aerial Weapons Scoring System (AWSS) integration with LBA TESS provided the ability to conduct force-on-target engagements using plastic ammunition for 30 mm gun, rockets, and simulated virtual emulated Hellfire missiles. Gunnery scoring was supported by the SMODIM, which transmitted data from the one point to the other. AWSS scored the pilot's live-fire gunnery performance and provided constructive After Action Review (AAR) feedback.[3][4][5]
Designed and manufactured by Inter-Coastal Electronics, Incorporated - a division of Aerotech, LLC(ICE), "The SMODIM was fully compatible with the multiple integrated laser engagement system (MILES) and legacy laser-based direct fire weapons simulation. Additionally, it eliminates the requirement for MILES-type lasers by providing the capability to geometrically pair weapon engagements with lasers".[6]
