Saab receives order from the UK to deliver Carl-Gustaf M4 Indoor and Outdoor Trainers

Source: Saab UK

The Carl-Gustaf M4 simulators take training as close to live firing as possible. As the OEM, Saab’s highly accurate replicas provide the same form, fit and function as the live weapon. A detailed ballistics table and temperature index replicate the behaviour and trajectories of live ammunition: this trains the correct use of sights, lead angle and point of aim for the different ammunition, supporting the British Army’s drive to increase lethality.

 

The Outdoor Trainer is used in instrumented collective training exercises, and for individual users to improve gunnery. Depending on the ammunition selected, the system simulates proximity burst, direct hit and fused ammunition, enabled by Saab’s high-fidelity Compact Ballistic Laser.

The Indoor Trainer is a virtual system that offers unlimited training opportunities through scenarios that instructors can create easily. Sensors provide high-fidelity data and enable immediate feedback of gunners’ performance, weapon handling and ballistics. Gunnery units can be networked together and only require a power source, making this highly deployable and delivering training at the point of need.

This order represents continued investment by the UK Defence Equipment & Support (DE&S) in Saab’s live training portfolio through the recently awarded ILT-D contract.
