Cubic Executive to Discuss the Importance of Leadership and Mission Command at 2017 LANPAC Symposium & Exposition

Cubic Global Defense (CGD), a business unit of Cubic Corporation (NYSE: CUB), today announced the participation of retired U.S. Army Lt. General Frank Wiercinski, senior vice president and managing director of Asia-Pacific, as the moderator of a panel titled, “Empowering the Team: Leveraging Leadership and Mission Command to Maximize the Human Dimension,” at the Association of the United States Army’s 2017 LANPAC Symposium & Exposition in Honolulu, Hawaii from May 23 – 25. Additionally, CGD will be showcasing its training-to-tactical capabilities with live, virtual and constructive, game-based training, while Cubic Mission Solutions (CMS) will present the latest in expeditionary communications and intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solutions.

“LANPAC is a unique opportunity for Cubic to demonstrate how our training solutions and expeditionary communications technologies can fulfill the requirements of the U.S. military and its efforts to assist our allied land forces in the Pacific theater,” said Wiercinski. “I also look forward to leading the discussion on the importance of mission command and how to best leverage leadership for alliance within the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.”

Wiercinski will moderate the following panel discussion:

  • Empowering the Team: Leveraging Leadership and Mission Command to Maximize the Human Dimension.
    Thursday, May 25, 8:05 – 9:30 a.m. (local time); Kauai Ballroom at the Sheraton Waikiki Hotel in Honolulu, Hawaii

CGD will showcase the following advanced training solutions at booth #505:

  • Ground combat training: Through the use of live, force-on-force, instrumented ground combat training, Cubic integrates realistic training environments and performance-based training initiatives to raise both individual and collective performance.
  • Instrumented Tactical Engagement Simulation System II (I-TESS II): Cubic’s I-TESS II is a fully integrated ground combat training system in a deployable package, based on Cubic’s latest laser-based wireless instrumentation products. The system requires minimal set-up time and delivers After-Action Reviews (AAR) immediately upon training completion. From unloading the equipment through exercise set-up, execution and AAR, all aspects are carefully designed to provide maximum training value.

CMS will showcase the following expeditionary communications and ISR capabilities at booth #L9:

  • Satellite Communications (SATCOM): Cubic | GATR provides ultra-portable, inflatable SATCOM terminals that enables comparable performance to rigid deployable antennas of similar size, but with up to 90 percent reduction in the logistical size/weight of those systems. This translates to a tremendous operational and transportability advantage for customers across both government and commercial industries.
  • Atlas Baseband Kit: Cubic’s Atlas is a high-data rate, ruggedized Full Motion Video (FMV) baseband product that enables the reception, backhaul and management of real-time video and airborne intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (AISR) sensor data, anywhere in the world.
