Multi-Domain Operations: Training Across Physical and Digital Threats

Beyond Close Quarters Battle

Traditional CQB training focuses on physical room-clearing skills. MDO training has to additionally account for CBRN considerations, cyber operations, counter-UAS detection and defeat, and electronic warfare with signal control.

Why This Requires a Different Kind of Facility

A facility built only for physical room-clearing doesn’t naturally support cyber or CBRN training layers. MDO-capable facilities, like Amidon’s Gauntlet, are built with that broader integration in mind from the start.

Coordination, Not Just Addition

The goal isn’t training each domain separately and hoping it adds up — it’s training the coordination between domains, which requires a facility designed to support that coordination physically, not just conceptually.

Built to Reconfigure

Because it’s built on Amidon’s modular ABC system, a facility like the Gauntlet isn’t locked into one layout. Walls, rooms, and training zones can be reconfigured between exercises, letting a single facility support a range of mission profiles instead of requiring a separate structure for each one.

Ballistic-Rated Throughout

Multi-domain doesn’t mean multi-purpose at the expense of safety. Every part of an MDO-capable facility is built on the same ballistic concrete system used across Amidon’s product line — live-fire capable construction, not a training aid layered on top of standard building material.
