Training & Simulation
Tanks/Combat Fighting Vehicles
Realistic tank on tank training poses a number of logistical challenges and increasingly relies on use of laser based systems which do not provide realistic effects of both a tank firing and hitting a target.
Laser-based “firing” during force-on-force training demands both a visual representation and differentiation between “firing” and “hit”. Wescom Defence Scalable Gunnery Signature Simulator (SGSS) and Light Gunnery Signature Simulator (LGSS) launchers have been designed to be mounted on tanks and combat fighting vehicles and provides very realistic firing and hit training scenarios.
A variety of ammunition including High Explosive Anti-Tank (HEAT), Armoured Piercing Fin Stabilizing Discarding Sabot (APFSDS) cartridges can be fired from the LGSS attached to the tank delivering a realistic impact effect to both the gunner and ground forces of a projectile hitting a steel target.
SGSS and LGSS launchers allow the selection of ammunition to engage an opposing tank, e.g. HEAT, APFSDS munitions.
