A key element in teaching artillery officers and other indirect fire users is that which covers battlefield observation via binoculars, laser range finders or other visual aids. It is therefore crucial that they have a realistic background to look at and observe for targets. The indirect fire trainer teaches the soldiers the skills necessary to reliably deliver mortar and artillery fire. XPI Simulation's P10+ solution is ideal for this type of instruction as it provides photo-realistic backgrounds for the training scenarios as well as weapon effects, flares and smoke to add to the realism.
Phoenix Simulation has chosen XPI Simulation’s P10+ image generator for an Artillery Forward Observation Fire Control Training Simulator that has been adopted by the Danish Army. The simulator will help alleviate some of the issues previously associated with artillery training, including the prohibitive cost of ammunition, environmental and climatic pressures and availability of ranges.
