VIGIL

LVC Simulation Federation — DoD Missile Warning & Sensor Fusion Platform

VIGIL is a DoD-aligned simulation and mission processing framework supporting Live, Virtual, and Constructive (LVC) training, OPIR satellite data fusion, missile warning workflows, and multi-federation interoperability via DIS/HLA/TENA/NETN protocols.

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Docker + Docker Compose
• Kafka + Redis (or use docker-compose.local.yaml)

Deploy Base Services (Local)

docker compose -f docker-compose.local.yaml up -d

Build Apps

cd apps/opir-ingest
docker build -t vigil-opir-ingest:latest .

Run Services

docker run -d --name vigil-opir-ingest \
  --network host \
  -e KAFKA_BROKERS=localhost:9092 \
  -e PORT=8081 \
  vigil-opir-ingest:latest

Check Health

curl http://localhost:8081/health | jq

TENA 2015	Range middleware, object reuse
NETN FOM (STANREC 4800)	NATO coalition interoperability
JFCDS (CSIAC/DTIC)	Joint Federated Common Data Services
DoD Cloud IaC	DevSecOps pipeline + infrastructure

Services

Service	Port	Purpose
opir-ingest	8081	OPIR satellite IR data ingestion

Phases

• Phase 0: Foundation — Monorepo, FOM, CI/CD, K8s cluster ✅
• Phase 1: Core Infrastructure — OPIR ingest, missile warning, sensor fusion ✅
• Phase 2: Mission Processing — Alerts, env monitor, LVC coordinator, replay
• Phase 3: Advanced Integration — DIS/HLA gateway, VIMIC plugin, cross-domain
• Phase 4: Operational Federation — Coalition, DoD certification
