Helicopter Tactical Simulator
The helicopter simulator was developed for tactical operations that can be performed in joint missions coordinated with other units. It is always linked to the naval unit simulators to perform joint operations.
The helicopter simulator is part of the MANTA (Multipurpose Advanced Networked Training Architecture) suite. MANTA solutions integrate different training methods and tools. They support the latest VR HMI, articulated viewing systems, moving platforms and integration of real devices.
The cockpit has all the main elements and functionalities to properly train the users to perform naval operations and to involve other trainees in the field.
