The UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) has selected the NGRAIN virtual task trainer (VTT) to support training for the BAE SA80 assault rifle.

The solution will be designed to increase soldier performance and proficiency and to reduce overall training costs for the programme.

The trainer will also help UK MoD accelerate learning and improve performance of critical maintenance and repair procedures.

The company’s channel partner PulseLearning will deploy the 3D equipment simulations for the UK Army on the army learning management system and as a mobile application.

The SA80 is currently used by The British Army during conflict missions in Afghanistan and Iraq.
