A revolutionary new technology called the Authentic Tactical Flight Simulator (Model ATFS 400) developed by Environmental Tectonics Corporation now offers pilots a ground-based simulator that provides more realistic tactical air combat experience at a much lower cost per event without the risk of airborne training.
 
Arotech Corporation (NasdaqNM: ARTX) announced today that its subsidiary, IES Interactive Training, has delivered 12 Range 3000 XP4 digital training simulators purchased by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration (TSA). The TSA is using IES simulators for its Federal Flight Deck Officer (FFDO) training program, based at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in Artesia, N.M.

April 28, 2004 – Yesterday the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute ( VTI) introduced a new driving simulator, Driving Simulator III, after several years of intensive development work.

Driving Simulator III is built around a real vehicle chassis and a sophisticated motion system, which enables fast acceleration. The surroundings are simulated and displayed to the driver via three main screens and three rear view mirrors. Under the chassis is a vibration table to simulate contact with the road surface, providing a more realistic driving experience. The driving dynamics are also very advanced and on the forefront of what can be done with current technology. Together this creates a unique simulator that provides an extremely realistic experience. Because of the modular construction, the various subsystems can be adapted to suit the needs of each individual research project. The driving simulator can be fully adapted for private cars and trucks by means of a chassis interchange system. In the future, it will also be possible to use it to simulate rail traffic.
McHugh will create a 500-foot-long reduced scale replica of a portion of a ship, floating in water, within a 171,000-square-foot building, then add layer upon layer of technology to create an extremely realistic battle experience.

FAAC Operator Driving Simulators are interactive, re-configurable training devices applying state of the art simulation to train motor vehicle operators. In March a full-motion simulator was installed at Kleber Kasern, Germany. In April a mobile simulator, installed in a 40-foot fifth-wheel trailer, was delivered to Camp Carroll, Republic of Korea.

Over a year ago BAE Systems at Warton were the very first client to place an order for Orad’s DVG product for Visual Simulation. This system has now been running reliably for many months. A short while ago BAE Systems took the decision to purchase more DVG’s for the Typhoon Active Cockpit Rig (ACR), again based up at Warton. This system has now been running continuously for several months, reliability being one of the key requirements.

Complete Press Release
List price for similar repeat business is approximately $C6 million. The complete system will be delivered in 2005.
