By GlobalDataThe company’s simulation system is at the core of F-16 Mission Training Center that allows the pilots to train and hone their operational readiness and quality to undertake any combat missions.
The FMS technology includes a 360-degree display system to provide a full mission training experience.
The interconnected simulator system also offers high fidelity along with an immersive and realistic flight training experience, without any safety issues.
Furthermore, the training system can also support future simulation infrastructure of the Polish Air Force by providing support and connectivity for additional training devices.
This will allow the Air Force personnel to conduct live, virtual and constructive training.
In 2018, Elbit Systems secured a contract to deliver M-346 FMS and training devices for the Polish Air Force.
The previously delivered system also offered the infrastructure to interconnect M-346 FMS with future PLAF F-16 mission centre to support combined training.
