One-one Instructor-Trainee training
VBS2Strike allows a trainee to work with a single instructor to train in calling for air support. No pilot is required in order to conduct training.

One-many Instructor-Trainee training
The VBS2Strike aircraft artificial intelligence engine allows one instructor to manage many aircraft concurrently. This allows one instructor to conduct training with multiple trainees at one time where each trainee is conducting a separate Close Air Support request.
Pilot in the Loop scenarios
While VBS2Strike allows training to occur without a pilot in the loop, it also supports the ability for a pilot to control aircraft at any time. When a pilot station overrides the aircraft AI control, the pilot has an easy to use flight mechanism to control the aircraft, it ordinances and the POD view camera. The pilot may switch in and out of aircraft at any time. When the pilot leaves an aircraft, the artificial intelligence once again resumes control of the aircraft.

Mission-based training
VBS2Strike training can occur as part of any other scenario. As a result, a trainee can conduct a CAS mission while taking part in a combined arms assault, while moving around the battlefield, engaging the enemy or while conducting any other form of maneuver.
Air-support for Combined Arms training
The VBS2Strike interface may be used to add high fidelity air support to any VBS2-based scenario. It can be used not only to train FACs but to augment and enhance other simulated training.
Integrated training with Indirect Fire
VBS2Strike integrates seamlessly with VBS2Fires, thereby allowing high fidelity CAS missions to be conducted at the same time as Indirect Fire missions.
Air-space deconfliction
VBS2Strike contains tools which allow the user to manage and view deconfliction of the Battlespace. Airspace Coordination Areas (ACAs) can be created and viewed in the 3D VBS2 view. Violations of these ACAs are recorded in the VBS2 AAR.
