Next-Generation Aircrew Training and Mission Readiness Solutions
Elbit Systems' Virtual Training solutions provide high-fidelity simulation systems for rotary-wing and fixed-wing aircraft, enabling air forces and training organizations to prepare pilots for operational missions in realistic virtual environments.
The solution portfolio includes Computer-Based Trainers (CBT), Flight Training Devices (FTD), and Full Flight Simulators (FFS), designed to support every stage of pilot training, from basic procedures and instrument flight rules (IFR) to advanced mission rehearsal and tactical operations.
Built on decades of operational aviation experience and leveraging commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technologies, the systems deliver realistic, cost-effective training while reducing reliance on live aircraft flight hours.
An established track record in delivering training and simulation solutions, combined with a comprehensive range of customizable systems, allows Elbit Systems to deliver cost-effective solutions tailored
to their customers' needs.
Comprehensive Pilot Training Across the Entire Mission Lifecycle
Virtual Training solutions support pilot qualification and proficiency training across all phases of flight, including:
- Aircraft start-up procedures
- Ground operations and taxi
- Takeoff and landing
- Instrument flight training
- Navigation exercises
- Emergency procedures
- Tactical mission training
- Combat mission rehearsal
- Multi-aircraft operational scenarios
The systems create realistic training environments that replicate operational conditions, helping pilots develop skills and confidence before entering real-world missions.
