EXHIBITIONS AND CONFERENCES

10 Sep 15. DSEI 2015 meeting military need for training and simulation.
Cutting edge technology for training the world’s soldiers, sailors and aircrews to be displayed at DSEI next week. Military training, simulation and education will form a key pillar of Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI), the market leading event for land, sea and air applications of defence and security products, technology and services.
As many of the world’s armed forces continue to face the challenge of countering a complex range of threats with constrained budgets, military training remains at the very centre of the defence and security sector. Indeed, training is essential for all military personnel, enabling the performance of physically and mentally demanding tasks at the highest possible levels of proficiency while operating in highly stressful and dangerous environments. While economic factors are causing nations to seek value for money in terms of manpower and equipment, new training methods are seen as vital enablers and force multipliers by countries seeking to maintain necessary levels of proficiency.
This increased emphasis is reflected by the impressive pace at which the technology is being developed. DSEI will showcase the whole spectrum of capabilities and innovative solutions that help militaries train cost effectively and for the long term, while maintaining readiness to mitigate a multitude of threats. The event will also include a comprehensive series of seminars focused on pertinent training issues and the role of training in major military programmes.
The evolution in simulation technology means that military professionals are now able to immerse themselves in increasingly realistic and high fidelity training environments. Moreover, the training providers who originally developed solutions specifically designed for military contingency are enhancing their offering with dual applications for the civil sector and visa versa. Motion Reality (stand N5-371) will feature the next generation Dauntless immersive trainer. The unique technology has trained FBI and SWAT teams and has also been used in celebrated cinematography, such as Lord of the Rings, Avatar and Polar Express.
Airbus Defence and Space (stand S2-310) will showcase its cutting-edge products, technologies and services using virtual reality. A first for both the company and DSEI, the entire stand has been designed around bespoke virtual reality cockpits; and will transport visitors into a virtual world wearing Oculus Rift headsets. This will also allow it to convey the breadth of its current portfolio across defence, space, military and civil aircraft in a unique way.
Visitors will be invited to experience three scenarios: disaster relief, a virtual air show and even a trip to Mars. The disaster relief scenario features the world-leading Airbus A400M military transporter bringing aid to a small town that has been devastated by an earthquake.
Training to counter the growing threat from Chemical, Biological, Radiological or Nuclear (CBRN) attack is essential in this time of heightened security. Argon Electronics (stand S4-270) will launch a new radiation detector simulator. The ADM-300 simulator replicates the Canberra ADM-300A (V1B) radiation survey meter which detects beta and gamma radiation and is deployed with the UK Ministry of Defence and the US Air Force, among others. It is used for teaching critical search and rescue, reconnaissance, survey and location skills as well as a practical understanding of mapping, shielding and safe demarcation in a challenging environment.
Maritime training will also feature prominently with SeaOwl Group’s VN Partisan naval training vessel making a DSEI debut in the ExCeL’s Royal Victoria Dock. The commercially-owned ship, which is currently used to train the French Navy, will form part of an exclusive waterborne showcase staged by 43 Commando Royal Marines, as they demonstrate their rapid boarding methods and abili
