With these expanded capabilities, the centre will be able to train infantry units in mechanised formations.
Rheinmetall is supplying 2,000 new Legatus laser transmitter units to the German Army, as well as 1,500 accompanying soldier target sets with laser sensors.
In a separate development, the company has formed a joint venture (JV) with US-based construction and engineering services provider Day & Zimmermann (D&Z), which will provide fully integrated munitions manufacturing and design solutions for the US market.
