Rheinmetall's training and simulation expertise highlighted at IDEX 2017
The armed forces of Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Poland, Canada and Indonesia already place their trust in Rheinmetall technology for training their Leopard 2 crews. At IDEX 2017, Group’s Simulation and Training business unit of the German Company Rheinmetall presents its Leopard Gunnery Skills Trainer (LGTS).

Besides superior technical equipment, the human operator continues to play an important role in successful missions. In order to effectively use the complex systems of a modern tank, it is vital to know its capabilities, dependencies and limitations.

To response to these new needs of military forces, the Group’s Simulation and Training, a business unit of Rheinmetall, supplies and modernizes a variety of gunnery and combat simulators like the Leopard Gunnery Skills Trainer (LGST, on show at IDEX) and driving simulators such as the Driver Training Simulator (DTS).

Here, the emphasis is squarely on gunnery and combat training for tank commanders, gunners, loaders and drivers. A further advantage of the Rheinmetall system: multiple simulators can be networked together, enabling tactical training at platoon and company level.

Here, Germany’s foremost supplier of ground forces systems and equipment is drawing not only on its Leopard 2 expertise and superb simulation capabilities, but also incorporating serious game technologies into the simulation. Rheinmetall’s approach combines the virtues of the game engine in the field of visualization with the high-fidelity accuracy of modern simulators.
