BAE Systems, Red 6 and PLEXSYS collaborate on immersive training

2023 年 11 月 29 日 – British Aerospace Systems是世界上一些最先进、技术领先的国防、航空航天和安全解决方案的提供商，本周宣布正在与 Red 6，一家增强现实（AR）技术公司，为军事空战训练提供应用程序，以及 Praxairis a modeling and simulation software company that aims to combine their technology and experience to revolutionize training for future armies.

The three companies jointly agreed to explore Red 6 augmented reality headset technology and PLEXSYS of immersive simulation integrated into BAE Systems in a single synthetic training environment. They will use BAE Systems’Project Ord”，结合了 Red 6 的高级战术增强现实系统 (ATARS) 技术和 PLEXSYS 的高级模拟战斗操作训练器 (ASCOT)。

Sir Stuart Atha, director of training strategy at BAE Systems, said: “This special partnership leverages our combined expertise and opens up huge opportunities to ensure our customers maintain the training they need mission readiness to meet the challenges of future contested battle spaces."

Agreement announced at Global Simulation and Training Exhibition I/ITSEC 2023 This week's training in Orlando, Florida, will see the companies leverage the latest technology and decades of collaboration with the world's leading militaries to deliver the training needed for today's and tomorrow's wars.

The collaboration will create an advanced, realistic training environment that enhances students' tactical preparation and decision-making training, allowing them to interact with real and simulated aircraft operated by their classmates. BAE Systems, which trains more than 450 pilots for air forces around the world each year, said this will allow students to put theoretical knowledge into practice in a cheaper, safer, more sustainable and reliable way.

Sir Stuart continued: “We are already working with PLEXSYS and Red 6 to rapidly mature capabilities and integrate technology into the Hawk, the world’s most proven and trusted advanced jet trainer, through the OdySSEy project, and now we are taking this a step further Leverage these relationships to push the boundaries of live virtual constructive (LVC) training.”

Commenting on the partnership, Ron Wiegand, CEO of PLEXSYS, said: “PLEXSYS is excited to partner with BAE Systems and Red 6 to combine our advanced simulation capabilities with cutting-edge augmented reality and synthesis environments. Integrating our ASCOT technology into Project OdySSEy represents a leap forward in training authenticity and effectiveness. This synergy will provide unparalleled training solutions with unprecedented immersion and interactivity to prepare the military for the complexity of the future battlefield. "

Finally, Kevin Fesler, Chief Revenue Office, Red 6 said, “The partnership created between these companies creates strong synergies in the LVC space that will bring integrated training closer to our collective The vision is to build a military virtual universe where all warfighters across all domains can train together in a common augmented reality battlefield.”
