Train for joint fires

JTACs and joint fires teams worldwide are using Varjo to rehearse the most demanding coordination scenarios at the point of need, building the precision and confidence that live training alone can't reliably deliver.

Train any time, any place

A safer way to train for the most dangerous situations

Reduce the cost of training with immersive mixed reality environments that replace or supplement traditional range-based solutions
Increase training velocity and qualify more JTAC operators in less time through repeatable, on-demand simulation
Integrate real-world tools seamlessly: trainees can read maps, radios, and notebooks through the headset's high-resolution passthrough cameras
Deploy at the point of need with a lightweight, portable setup that removes the space and logistics demands of large dome simulators
Train for any terrain, anywhere in the world, from mountain observation points to dense urban environments, without leaving the base
Meet accreditation requirements with NATO and MoD-certified training that counts toward official JTAC qualification

Training for every phase of the mission

Build skills from day one

Initial JTAC qualification

Mixed reality simulation gives student controllers a safe, repeatable environment to build the core skills of observation, communication, and aircraft coordination before they ever step onto a live range.

Train for complexity

Multi-aircraft coordination

Trainees practice controlling multiple aircraft simultaneously across dynamic, realistic scenarios, developing the judgment and composure needed in high-tempo joint fires environments.

Prepare for the unexpected

Adverse conditions and degraded comms

Controllers rehearse scenarios involving poor visibility, communication failure, and rapidly changing threat pictures, so the unexpected becomes familiar before it becomes real.

Precision under pressure

Types 1, 2, and 3 controls

Varjo-powered simulators support all three control types, enabling operators to build and maintain currency across the full range of JTAC responsibilities within a single accredited system.

Train together, wherever you are

Distributed and joint training

JTAC operators can train alongside pilots and air crews in shared virtual environments, building the cross-domain coordination that modern joint fires operations demand.

Full-mission rehearsal

Mission preparation and rehearsal

Teams can rehearse specific mission profiles in high-fidelity virtual environments that mirror real-world geography and threat conditions.

NATO accreditation achieved

Inzpire CASE JTAC Simulator

Inzpire's CASE JTAC simulator, powered by Varjo XR-4 Series headsets, has received official certification from the UK Ministry of Defence and under the international Memorandum of Agreement for NATO competency and currency training. It covers Types 1, 2, and 3 controls — making it the first mixed reality JTAC solution to reach this level of accreditation.

Clarity and comfort

Designed for the demands of the field.

JTAC training puts specific demands on resolution. Trainees are scanning the horizon for aircraft, checking their peripheral vision, reading maps, radios, and notebooks — all while staying immersed in the scenario.

The Varjo XR-4 Series delivers the passthrough clarity to make that possible, with a field of view wide enough to train the way operators actually work. The XR-4 Secure Edition meets TAA compliance requirements for classified environments, and its portability means training can go wherever the unit is.

The Varjo advantage

Setting the standard for joint fires training.

Varjo's XR solutions provide the fidelity, security, and interoperability that defense training demands. The XR-4 Series integrates with leading simulation software, supports offline operation in secure environments, and is backed by Varjo's expert services. From initial qualification to mission rehearsal, it is the trusted foundation for the next generation of JTAC training.
