VSTEP has been awarded a contract by the Mexican Navy to deliver class A NAUTIS full mission bridge (FMB) simulators and 24 NAUTIS desktop-trainer stations.
Together with its Mexican partner Edutelsa, VSTEP will deploy simulators at the Naval Academy in Veracruz and new training unit of the Heroica Escuela Naval Militar, which is scheduled to open later this year.
With a 240° horizontal field of view, the FMB simulators comply with the class A DNV standards for 2.14 certification for Maritime Simulator Systems, and IMO model courses 1.22 and 1.32.
The simulators are integrated with the NAUTIS naval task force software module, which includes tactical communications, amphibious landing, replenishment at sea and anti-piracy training.
