Prepare for the unexpected

Emergency procedures

Pilots rehearse critical responses to engine failures, system malfunctions, and severe weather without the risks or costs of live training.

Precision under pressure

Weapons and targeting

Mixed reality allows pilots, aircrew and JTACs to train together on air-to-air and air-to-ground targeting, building accuracy and confidence in mission scenarios.

Every role, every mission

Crew and rear-crew training

Weapons systems officers, loadmasters, and mission specialists can rehearse procedures and coordination in immersive environments that mirror real operations.
