Inzpire was awarded a GBP346,024 (USD414,049) contract from the UK Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA) in June to develop a prototype mixed-reality deployable simulator.

Speaking to Janes at Farnborough Airshow on 20 July, Steven Pook, head of Mission Training Devices for Inzpire, said that the company was awarded a GBP346,024 contract from DASA in June – funded via Defence and Science Technology Laboratory (Dstl) – to deliver a gunnery simulator.

The project, known as the ‘Synthetic Aviation Gunnery Equipment' (SAGE), will involve the design, build, test, evaluation, and development of a prototype that will support 22 Squadron's Crew Served Weapons Instructors (CSWIs) requirements for a live-training alternative, meeting the Joint Helicopter Command's (JHC) Operational Shooting Policy, the company said in a separate announcement.

Pook noted that the need to develop a new deployable gunnery simulator came out of a requirement from 22 CSWIs for a virtual trainer that is capable of delivering currency training – a capability, which the current 22 CSWIs simulators lack.
