The commander’s and gunner’s workstations feature original components such as control handles and operator interfaces, but are also equipped with replica interactive touch panels. This enables personnel to practise complex operational sequences in a highly realistic environment, without necessarily having to use the original equipment. Linked via standard interfaces, the original equipment and configurable touch panels permit rapid switching between different simulated vehicles.

DESUG, whose simulator core contains the Rheinmetall TacSi simulations system, can also be used as a tactical simulator. This enables even greater expansion of the system’s operational capabilities.
