Doron Precision Systems, Inc. recently received orders from the U.S. Air Force Reserve Command for 20 “550Truckplus” driving simulator systems that will be installed at 20 different air base locations throughout the continental U.S., as well as an order from the U.S. Army Reserve for a “550JLTVplus” driving simulator system for Camp Parks, California.

Both types of Doron simulators include a 3 DOF (degree of freedom) motion base to provide warfighters with realistic training experiences to develop and sharpen critical skills without the risk of accidents or additional costs caused by normal “wear and tear.”

The 550Truckplus includes more than 80 truck driver training scenarios. Each scenario focuses on specific learning objectives, including commercial driver’s license (CDL) maneuvers and defensive driving techniques, as well as urban, rural and highway driving. The 550Truckplus driving simulator system has trained thousands throughout the Defense Department. Many civilian truck driving schools across the country also use the same training systems.

The 550JLTVplus integrates original-equipment-manufacturer instrumentation and controls to replicate the look and performance of the actual vehicle. It offers high resolution graphics, precise vehicle dynamics, and a comprehensive virtual training environment where a driver can experience various weather conditions, visibility issues, challenging roadways, off road trails, steep inclines, side hills, moguls, and rivers.
