Experts from Inzpire’s collective training team were recently involved in the design and delivery of Exercise CRIMSON WARRIOR, the largest military exercise run by the Royal Air Force in the United Kingdom for over a decade.
Inzpire’s experts had been working alongside military counterparts from 92 Sqn, the United States Air Force and the United States Marine Corps since the start of 2020 to ensure that Exercise CRIMSON WARRIOR was a success.
During this process Inzpire project managed and brought together all the exercise support agencies including industry contractors, the electronic warning test range at RAF Spadeadam and land owners to ensure that military vehicles and assets could utilise their land safely.
In the lead-up to the Exercise, Inzpire continued its work alongside both HQ Air A6 and A7 to ensure that the bespoke planning, execute and de-brief facility at RAF Waddington was fit for purpose for the exercise.
Working to a set of desired learning objectives, Inzpire’s training experts produced all of the exercise background scenario, documentation and exercise products in order to immerse participants and maximise the learning outcomes.
During the Exercise itself, Inzpire supported military personnel from 92 Sqn by acting as the mission support officer (MSO) and directing the opposing forces to ensure the desired learning objectives were met.
On conclusion of each mission, Inzpire supported the exercise de-briefs by collating all the participants’ data and presenting it in the combined evaluation led by 92 Sqn. As part of the debrief facility, Inzpire personnel presented 92 Sqn with key observations that they had noted during the mission, in order to make short term improvements for future missions.
Andy Fisher, Collective Training Division Executive, said: “Inzpire is immensely proud to have been able to support Ex CRIMSON WARRIOR. This was the largest and most complex air exercise that the RAF has planned and executed in modern times. It was humbling to be part of the team supporting 92 Sqn in their training of the Qualified Weapons Instructors of the future”.
Inzpire’s Collective Training division has over 10 years’ experience of successful partnered collective training delivery with the UK Ministry of Defence. The division has designed and delivered over 400 live and synthetic exercises and provided operationally-realistic training to over 10,000 frontline personnel.
The company’s collective training teams are currently embedded in the RAF’s Air Battlespace Training Centre, Air Warfare Centre and Typhoon Operational Conversion Unit, where they deliver joint collective training to Armed Forces personnel from both the UK and overseas.
