VirTra Receives Military Skills Training Simulator Order from 819th Global Support Squadron
TEMPE, Ariz. - (BUSINESS WIRE) - VirTra Systems, Inc. Bob Ferris, VirTra Systems' CEO and
president (Pink Sheets:VTSI), today announced that VirTra has received
an order for a five screen, 300-degree IVR-300 4G military
skills training simulator from the 819th Global Support
Squadron.
Their firearms
training system includes recoil kits, M-4/M-16 tetherless recoil
kits, a flashlight system, a shotgun insert, M9 tetherless recoil kits,
Threat-Fire belts, heavy weapon kits for the M240 and M249 firearms and
a full library of training scenarios.
The 819th Global Support Squadron wanted the most realistic
and effective simulator training available, which made VirTra's firearms
training simulator the natural choice. Used to prepare U.S. Air
Force Personnel before overseas deployment, VirTra's top-of-the-line
simulation technology helps save the lives of service members and
civilians alike through more realistic 300-degree training. In addition,
the system can safely "shoot back" at the trainee via the Threat-Fire
belt, which delivers a split-second electric stun, adding real-world
pressure during a simulated exercise.
"It is very rewarding when a unit of the United States Air Force selects
VirTra Systems' products as their firearm system training simulator of
choice. This sale adds to our popularity within the U.S. military
market, which is a significant growth market for VirTra," said Bob
Ferris, CEO of VirTra.
