Virtual Systems Trainers
The first and only fielded Virtual Reality-based weapons training device that supports portable or fixed training sites for weapons systems training, VST provides Stinger, Javelin, and Igla team training within a 360-degree immersive, realistic battlefield environment. The VST instructor station provides a selection of instructor-defined training scenarios incorporating high fidelity moving models in varying terrain, such as desert, forest, or urban areas. VST includes a detailed after-action review (AAR) scoring presentation of gunner actions, for example: correct identification of friendly and threat vehicles, proper launch/engagement sequence, operator responses to emergency/fault conditions, and correct aim point.
Field Handling Trainer – Stinger (FHT-S)
Used to practice basic manual Stinger handling, operation, sighting, and ranging skills, FHT-S visually tracks actual aircraft or radio-controlled targets, allows insertion/removal of Battery Coolant Unit (BCU), and features the same controls, mechanical operation, size, weight, and appearance as the Stinger weapon-round.
Field Handling Trainer – Igla (FHT-I)
Used to practice basic Igla manual weapon handling, operation, sighting, and ranging skills. FHT-I visually tracks actual aircraft or radio-controlled targets and features the same size, weight, appearance, controls, and mechanical operation as the Igla weapon-round.
VST-Stinger-Lite
A leaner, screen-based version of our proven VST product, VST-Stinger-Lite will use the same software suite as the VST but is purpose-built for training in a more austere environment. It replicates the form and function of the FIM-92 A-MANPADS – sharing the same dimensions, weight, and controls/switches.
