Meggitt Training Systems will conduct demonstrations of its FATS® 100MIL at ITEC 2018 at Messe Stuttgart in Germany during May 15-17. Leveraging key features from the US Army Engagement Skills Trainer II and US Marine Corps Indoor Simulated Marksmanship Trainer programs of record, the industry-leading FATS 100MIL delivers a significant expansion in virtual small-arms training capability.
The FATS 100MIL introduced revolutionary features such as advanced game engine 3D marksmanship, enhanced diagnostics with intelligent automatic coaching and collective training. The system provides an impressive array of functionality for both instructor and trainee, delivering solid weapon-handling and shot-placement analytics, coaching tools that automatically highlight trainee results for reinforcement or correction, and enhanced graphic capabilities for an all-encompassing training platform. During ITEC, company representatives will be available for demonstrations of the export-ready product, along with a variety of BlueFire® wireless weapons, mortars and other simulators.
“The FATS 100MIL is uniquely qualified to meet increasingly rigorous training requirements driven by conventional and asymmetric threats across Europe,” said Mark Mears, managing director at Meggitt Training Systems, Ltd. “The FATS 100MIL, along with its new FATS 100P and FATS 300MIL siblings, delivers maximum realism in an era of constrained military budgets.”
