The training software required an upgrade to keep up with the changes implemented for C-RAM along with the Technical Manuals associated with the device.

Under this project, US Army soldiers will use C-RAM II OMT to familiarise with operation and maintenance of the C-RAM LPWS.

In October 2018, DiSTI designed, developed and tested numerous electronic classrooms and training application software for the C-RAM LPWS and OMT under a US Army contract.

The company used its VE Studio Virtual Training Development Platform for creating the training application software.

DISTI chief risk officer John Cunningham said: “We are honoured to have been selected by the US Army to upgrade the C-RAM Virtual Operations and Maintenance Trainer.

“The use of virtual technologies to train operators and maintainers continues to deliver real benefits to our military and commercial customers.

“Because the C-RAM was originally developed using DiSTI’s VE Studio Common Core Architecture the enhancements can be completed in a much more cost-effective and timely manner than traditional hand-coding practices.”

Additionally, DiSTI will install a set of classroom equipment, supporting the training requirements for soldiers assigned to Air Defense Artillery (ADA) units.
