Training & Simulation

Wescom Defence has been at the heart of providing product for realistic training for defence and law enforcement agencies around the world.

By bringing together the latest in pyro-technology and leveraging our expertise in mechanical engineering, Wescom Defence provides a combination of weapon effects and target hit simulators. Used in realistic battlefield scenarios, they provide safe conditions for the trainers, trainees, and the environment.

Applying Pyro-Technology to modern Battlefield Training and Simulation provides hyper realistic military scenarios and effective stress inoculation to the participants. Tailored around our customers’ requirements the range of type-qualified pyrotechnic products for Training and Simulation enhances realism during tactical training of land forces.

Wescom Battlefield Smart Hub weapon effect launchers enable easy integration with laser or radio-frequency based training systems allowing for very sophisticated weapon training. Visible and audible effects on the training ground are achieved by applying pyrotechnic battle and weapon effect systems. This converts training environments into hyper realistic recreation of battlefield effects that normally a combatant would only face in battlefields.

Pyrotechnic effects support a variety of training scenarios such as IED Awareness, MOUT, Force on Force, Force on Target and ManPADS exercises. In combat training centres soldiers are prepared how to react in various combat situations.
