SISTIM supports testing, training, and analysis with live fire support and other C4I systems.

SISTIM has long provided extensive SImulation/STIMulation capabilities for use with AFATDS and other live and simulated fire support systems for experimentation, analysis, testing, and training.

Simulator/Stimulator (SISTIM) is a message simulation and stimulation product that supports testing and training for fire support systems. It is capable of transmitting and receiving messages using multiple communications protocols, and performing simple message response generation for several common fire support and command and control systems.

SISTIM also includes a Time-Ordered-Event List (TOEL) generation and execution capability, providing the operator with a means of creating and “playing back” a sequence of actions to the live system. This capability then stimulates the system in order to test system actions. The active simulation capabilities permit the “filling in” of absent systems, permitting testing in a sparse environment.
