SWINDON, UNITIED KINGDOM,
AUGUST 21ST 2009:
Battlefield Sports will exhibit at the 23rd Small Arms and Cannons
Symposium, which takes place in Defence Academy of the United Kingdom in
Shrivenham.
Exhibiting between August 25 to 27, the
company's stand will feature the latest range of state-of-the-art
training and simulation equipment.
Battlefield Sports are specialists in
precision small arms training weapons utilizing infrared and radio
communications, and the exhibition will feature its new S*A*T*R (small
arms transmitter receiver) system.
Infrared
Training Weapons
Battlefield Sports' new
S*A*T*R
system features self-contained training rifles, SAWs, and sub machine
guns which can emulate up to 69 different weapons, including the L85
(SA80) and Minimi (L110A1) squad automatic weapons.
S*A*T*R is designed for force-on-force training exercises to provide
real-time feedback during simulation, as well as an electronic record of
their performance for after-action reviews.
S*A*T*R uses a combination of narrow beam of digital infrared data and
radio data transfer, enables real-time hit-feedback and other statistics
such as shot accuracy percentage without requiring a central computer
system.
Depending on the model, the infrared “bullets” shoot more than 450
meters (1,500 feet). Since it is a light based system, the weapons are accurate. This
patent-pending technology also features real-time voice feedback. For
example when a marine hits an enemy, the shooting weapon instantly says
“casualty” or “kill confirmed” or “already dead.” The enemy’s weapon
issues a near-miss, wound, or dead sound effect.
Since the system does not require blank munitions, paint balls or BB
pellets, it is cost-effective.
Further the robust system is accurate and has in-built anti-cheating
technology, including that the system disables fire automatically, the
instant a soldier takes a hit causing simulated death or an
incapacitating wound.
The Symposium at Shrivenham uses a well proven format which brings
together, representatives from Military Staff, Government Procurement
Agencies, and Research and Development Staff who through presentations,
discussion groups and plenary sessions encourage cross-fertilization of
ideas, the development of new perspectives and the challenging of
current thinking.
Paul Diamond, Battlefield Sports UK Agent, said: "Participation in the
Small Arms and Cannons Symposium is a regular event in our calendar and
we are delighted that Battlefield Sports is participating again this
year."
