The company said the system brings flight training, engineering tasks and joint multi domain exercises into one environment. “Prepar3D Fuse provides unmatched synthetic training for the warfighter,” said Adam Breed, chief of innovation at Lockheed Martin.
Breed added that combining existing SAGE and Prepar3D technologies with Unreal Engine visuals and Blackshark.ai’s world model shortens development cycles and reduces costs. “By marrying our proven SAGE and Prepar3D technologies with Unreal Engine’s real time graphics and Blackshark.ai’s global terrain, we give operators a high fidelity training environment while cutting development time and driving cost efficiencies.”
Blackshark.ai described the launch as a significant shift in how simulation and reality are brought together. “This marks the beginning of reality and simulation converging toward omniscient worlds that think, evolve, and remain in perfect sync with a changing planet,” declared Michael Putz, CEO of Blackshark.ai.
Prepar3D Fuse delivers a full Earth model with more than 1,000 geo referenced airports and detailed cityscapes, as well as accurate weather and atmospheric systems and multispectral sensor options. It also includes an AI driven forces engine that automates behaviour for units ranging from small crews to brigade level formations.
The system is designed to integrate smoothly with existing training assets through compliance with established simulation standards and native Unreal Engine workflows. Lockheed Martin said it will deploy Prepar3D Fuse across its global training devices and highlighted its open design, which allows rapid adoption on a wide range of platforms.
