The British Army selected Elbit Systems UK in November last year for the ICAVS(D) platform. It is one of the first pathfinder projects for the Army’s Collective Training Transformation Programme (CTTP).

The platform leverages the latest high-specification hardware and defence virtual simulation software to offer virtual tactical training in the British Army’s Battlecraft Syllabus.

It can be used to carry out collective training and experimentation for vehicle crew level, up to Combined Arms Sub-Unit.
