Rashtriya Raksha University to develop wargame centre in Delhi to train soldiers in virtual reality simulation war games

[INDIAPOSITIVE]

The Gandhinagar-based Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU) will develop a Wargame Research and Development Centre in New Delhi for the Indian Army to train its soldiers in virtual reality simulation war games designed specifically to meet the challenges of counter-terrorism and counter-insurgency operations by the armed forces in India.

According to Indian Army officials and the university management, a memorandum of understanding was signed between RRU, an institute specialising in national security and policing, and the Army Training Command of the Indian Army on Friday to develop the Wargame Research and Development Centre in New Delhi.
The laboratory will be prepared by Tech Mahindra, while the RRU intends that the wargame centre provides a “realistic” experience to the user.

The Indian Army will provide data to the university to develop model backgrounds for their soldiers to train virtually.

“The MoU will facilitate co-operation and collaboration in the niche field of simulation, computer wargaming, and allied technologies,” read a statement from the Army Training Command, Indian Army.

As per officials privy to the development, the project has been given a prototype name ‘WARDEC’ and it will be a first-of-its-kind simulation-based training centre in India where the army can train its soldiers in diverse combat situations through virtual reality wargames where artificial intelligence (AI) will be used to design the “gameplay” as per the present-day needs of the army.

The RRU has been established as an “institute of national importance” through an act passed in the Parliament in 2020 and it functions under the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA).

“The RRU has enhanced capabilities in domains of Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security, as also defence and strategic studies. Along with Maker’s Lab, which is the research and development division of technology leader Tech Mahindra, RRU will establish the wargame centre which will incorporate emerging technologies into war game development. This will allow realistic experience for the users,” said Colonel Nidhish Bhatnagar, Director, School of Information Technology, Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Security at RRU, in a statement on Saturday.

The outcomes will be an input for the shaping of strategies and doctrines of the Indian Army, he added.

While the university has not revealed the estimated time to develop this centre, officials said that RRU faculties will visit New Delhi in the next three to six months to interact with Army officials and gather data.

The university will then use the data to design specific needs based gameplay in the centre.


“Batches of 10-11 faculties will visit the army headquarters in New Delhi to understand their needs, collect data and develop prototypes,” said an RRU official.

In Gandhinagar? How weird is that.

What an outstanding development.

It has grown from 2009 into a world class institution and has shown continuous growth to now become a National Institution.

In 2020 it was taken over by Govt. of India. (via act in parliament) and turned into a Center of Excellence and National Importance.

Crass and stupid to put such an institution in a place with a singular record of non-contribution to the armed forces in any way whatsoever. Only something that a bhakt could applaud.

Hates can hate because that is what Haters do.

Meanwhile This Institute gains strength and continues to Contribute to a Better India every single day.

Thank you Modi. Thank you Gujarat.

Thank you Modi. Thank you Gujarat.

Arse lickers can lick arse because that is what arse lickers do.

Under Modi, we have bought planes for three times the price negotiated, we have dropped the ball on our submarine fleet expansion, we have a Mountain Strike Corps lying around with two divisions and more withdrawn from the line of battle, but held suspended due to lack of will or energy, we have confusion about what has been grabbed from us by the Chinese and what has been retained, we have the army demoralised by the double dealing on OROP, ....yeah, of course, aap aam kaise khatein hain? Thank you, Modi.

And Gujarat has still not contributed anything to the armed forces. Thank you, Gujarat.

Keep it up, I am sure you will continue to prove the point of the new-fangled academy of 2009 being a million times better than the existing institutions. Thank you, bhakt.

Yes, I remember your pride and boast in being granted some power in pdf. I am sure you know what you are talking about.

Audacious claims but all LIES.

1. Rafale is negotiated cheaper than what NDA negotiated.
2. Nuclear Submarine joining the fleet
3. Mountain Corps

3. OROP

And Gujarat has still not contributed anything to the armed forces. Thank you, Gujarat.

Yes, Gujarat contributed Very Little to the BRITISH INDIAN ARMY to oppress Indians.

But they did give us Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Narendra Modi and even a Jinnah for the pakistanis.

Keep it up, I am sure you will continue to prove the point of the new-fangled academy of 2009 being a million times better than the existing institutions. Thank you, bhakt.

No one has stopped existing institutions from doing the same.

In fact one one wonders why existing institutions has NOT be doing the same for the past decades. That's Rhetorical.

One has little sympathy for your hate and frustration.

Yes, that too.

Another Feather in its Cap.

ONLY PDF? You are behind a little. But coming as you do from one-frog ponds it is quite clear you cannot figure out any other point of view. Not just here, but in every forum, in every gathering of reasonable people, what you are trying to represent has begun to look as hollow as it is.

Check again: LVII Mountain Strike Corps is still where it was, with two divisions contributed, both sitting idle, and nothing but the loud talk of an uncertain and increasingly out of control government releasing press statements. That is the central problem; your heroes can win elections, they can manage their image, and that's where everything comes to a grinding halt. There is nothing more to show for it. Ask yourself what happened to another RAPID and another Infantry Division that is as we say all this lying idle - you are not expected to know which these are, being a publicist with no inclination for military matters - and not being attached to the LVII because of lack of funds.

All these are the usual boom and bluster and all the news is dated last year, as a last-gasp effort to convince a sceptical public - not the garden bhakt like you, but those who are in touch with the forces and their leadership - that something, somehow, is being done.

Indian Army strengthens mountain strike corps looking after China border

Sixteen meetings and all we get is a kick up our collective arse and a further reinforcement of Chinese presence on the ground.

Against the total headcount that we can summon up, with all the resources of XVI Corps, XXXIII Corps, III Corps and IV Corps, the Chinese have two Group Armies, over and above their present deployment against the Indian Army, one week away, that is, an additional 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers. Each.

Are you drunk?

Do you think the Supreme Court holding that there was nothing wrong with the arithmetic, or with the constitutionality of the centre's proposals, amounts to convincing the ex-serviceman that he is getting a fair deal?

 

[Joe Shearer]

Yes, Gujarat contributed Very Little to the BRITISH INDIAN ARMY to oppress Indians.

But they did give us Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Narendra Modi and even a Jinnah for the pakistanis.

Nothing to do with the RSS, nothing to do with the BJP, nothing to do with the military. Gujarat contributed to the Gandhian struggle that your lunatic fringe element, to whom your friends have built shrines as a demi-god, shot and killed. Gujarat contributed Sardar Patel, whom we see the Sangh Parivar lamely trying to claim as one of its own, in the absence of anything that it did, other than act as informers for the British against the freedom struggle.

Ironic, quoting these figures whose work in building bridges between communities is vilified daily. Ironic, Sardar Patel being glorified, and having to watch a crowd of frenzied lumpen fanatics jumping up and down in front of a mosque in, of all places, Bardoli, the place where he won all India recognition for uniting Indians - strange thing to do, isn't it? Uniting Indians - against the British.
I can understand Gandhi, Patel and Jinnah. How did you shoehorn in Modi? He was not even born when India got independence.

No one has stopped existing institutions from doing the same.

In fact one one wonders why existing institutions has NOT be doing the same for the past decades. That's Rhetorical.

They have, and as in every other case, they have been sidelined and told to shut up. Ask your friends in the Army, in the Navy, in the Air Force, if you have any.

One has little sympathy for your hate and frustration.

You, and sympathy? From a member of those preaching hate for an entire community because of the way they worship? Your sense of irony didn't get much of an upbringing. It shows signs of a stunted growth.

Since your post is full of personal attack and snide comments, it gives me an insight into your character.

This has been reported @waz and I hope they take suitable action.

Since it has been proved that you make cheap accusation without any proof, you will be required to post PROOF of any more of your absurd claims.

Start with two divisions of LVII Mountain Strike Corps sitting idle.

Then provide PROOF of RAPID and another Infantry Division being idle.

Then provide PROOF of division not being attached to the LVII because of lack of funds.

All these are the usual boom and bluster and all the news is dated last year, as a last-gasp effort to convince a sceptical public - not the garden bhakt like you, but those who are in touch with the forces and their leadership - that something, somehow, is being done.

We have seen a very good demonstration of "boom and bluster" without Proof and now that we know this, review what the public will now think of your claims.

As the proverb goes "A fool does not delight in understanding, but only in airing his opinions".

From now on , your opinion and claims need to be furnished with proof.

Sixteen meetings and all we get is a kick up our collective arse and a further reinforcement of Chinese presence on the ground.

Against the total headcount that we can summon up, with all the resources of XVI Corps, XXXIII Corps, III Corps and IV Corps, the Chinese have two Group Armies, over and above their present deployment against the Indian Army, one week away, that is, an additional 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers. Each.

Again provide PROOF of your EVERY claim.

I am not interested in wasting my time with every idiot who makes audacious claims.

Are you drunk?

Do you think the Supreme Court holding that there was nothing wrong with the arithmetic, or with the constitutionality of the centre's proposals, amounts to convincing the ex-serviceman that he is getting a fair deal?

ex-serviceman can go to the court if he is not getting a fair deal.

Or they can vote in the election if they are not satisfied.

Provide PROOF that EVERY ex-serice man is not satisfied. No one expects everyone to be happy. As long as the majority is happy, its a job well done.
