Saab provides next-generation vehicle simulators to Norway

The BT46 two-way simulator has the ability to simulate the ballistics and time of flight of a projectile in real-time.

Saab has been awarded a contract from the Norwegian Army for development and serial deliveries of the new generation Gamer vehicle simulators (a dual-simulator training system). The total order amounts to SEK142 million.

"Norway is an important market for Saab. We will deliver a very advanced military training system for vehicles that will have the best training effect," says Henrik H�jer, head of Saab Training & Simulation.

The BT46 two-way simulator is a unique system that can be adapted to meet a huge variation of needs. A two-way simulator has the ability to simulate the ballistics and time of flight of a projectile in real-time, with a high level of precision, and simultaneously give immediate and realistic feedback to the gunner and the target.

Saab has supplied live training equipment for the Norwegian Combat Training Center, in Rena, since 2003 and this order will enhance their training capabilities for live training.
