Elbit Systems UK has been awarded a contract by the UK Ministry of Defence to develop and provide artillery and mortar training simulators. The Interim Indirect Fire Simulation (IIDFS) will be provided to the Royal School of Artillery (RSA) at Larkhill, the Combined Arms Manoeuvre School (CAMS) at Warminster and the Collective Training Group (CTG) at training locations in the UK and abroad.
Elbit Systems UK will develop, produce and integrate simulators for the British Army’s 81mm mortars and 105mm Light Gun, providing simulated ammunition and a high technology interface for live communication between instructors and military personnel. Supported by Elbit Systems UK’s open architecture, the systems will allow for simultaneous individual and collective training of military personnel. Elbit Systems UK will also provide ongoing training and technical support throughout the three-year programme.
This contract awarded by the UK Ministry of Defence builds on Elbit Systems UK’s existing advanced training and simulation systems deployed to the British Army, and will also leverage the experience of its subcontractor, Van Halteren Technologies, from the Netherlands, who have already delivered similar systems globally. The contract will create and sustain jobs across Elbit Systems UK sites, and its supply chain.
