TZMD Operation Double Decker

ZAZZU

During the course of Operation Double Decker , Mountain Division tested remote operational interface procedures for various other TZ departments and local agency officers performing in various capacities.

Newly developed mission planning and situational awareness technologies were integrated procedurally around the core 3-man team ground operational element, and live-tested in a real-world live-fire environment where signals interruption and organizational overlaps between departments and agencies could occur.

“ We had two lucky situations and a little double decker! ”

Layered technological insights allowed operatives to engage multiple views on the subject areas. Feedback obtained from after-action reviews added to lessons learned during the course of the operation. TZMD operators were able to improve their own field performance with the new tools, and TZ Research and Development technicians gained valuable insight into creating best practices and design improvements. Go Teame!
