Meggitt Training Systems is a leading integrated live-fire and virtual training system for military and law enforcement agencies worldwide. At SimTEX, Meggitt is highlighting the FATS 180MIL three-screen virtual training system with 180° field of view. The FATS 180MIL provides realistic, engaging training, with HD on every screen and 5.1surround sound to immerse users in action.

Also at the show is Meggit's Multi-Function Stationary Infantry (MF-SIT) system and LOMAH (location of miss and hit). The MF-SIT responds to hits or pre-programmed scenarios for realistic urban operations and specialised training. LOMAH's shot scoring measures the precise time of a bullet's triangulated supersonic shock wave, determining the bullet's location and highlighting the shot(s) on the firing computers.

“Realistic simulation and training are more important than ever, and Meggitt Training Systems delivers through our unrivalled virtual and live-fire product portfolios,” said Andrea Czop, vice president of strategy, sales and marketing for Meggitt Training Systems. “I encourage SimTex attendees from throughout the Middle East to visit our stand and see how we can help their military and police forces be more effective in conflict situations thanks to the most innovative and proven simulation and shooting range systems in the industry.”

Meggitt Training Systems has an extensive Middle Eastern customer base for its small-arms simulators, as well as firing range equipment and support. This business is supported by the company’s regional office in Abu Dhabi, as well as six other offices around the world. All are staffed by those with extensive experience in the defense and law enforcement industries.
