Under the terms of $2.9m firm fixed-price contract, the company’s MILO force options business unit will manufacture and deliver a total of seven custom-designed virtual weapons training simulators, for installation at regional readiness centres across the country.
Each of the seven systems has a multi-screen 24 lane MILO-based application, designed to offer a virtual firing range for pistol and rifle marksmanship training missions.
Arotech Training and Simulation Division executive vice-president Kurt Flosky said the strategic investment in internal product development of MILO range’s core capabilities and its configurable multiscreen applications have enabled the company to successfully compete and win in a growing international market.
"Our MILO range solution was well-positioned to satisfy the stringent Saudi Arabian requirements and has continually proven itself to be the best solution for a vast array of global training applications," Flosky said.
