Tze'elim Training Base, Negev Desert - Israel's improved Tactical Training Center (TTC) trains brigades in extensive maneuvering force-on-force drills at this sprawling, multidisciplinary desert training site.
Known as MATBAT-B, the fully instrumented TTC ventures well beyond capabilities provided in earlier versions of the site used since 1998. Not only does the upgraded TTC provide brigade and division-level force-on-force training, but it is connected via satellite links and the military's encrypted Mountain Rose cellular network to Israel's National Urban Training Center, a 100,000-acre site used to train infantry in the type of house-to-house and subterranean combat expected in Gaza, southern Lebanon and other theaters.
