The new $2.1m delivery order aims to help prepare the nation’s marines with realistic battle simulations capability.

Cubic Global Defense president Bill Toti said: "I-TESS II is a turnkey capability that brings new levels of realism in an immersive environment to replicate the threat of live combat scenarios.

"Cubic looks forward to the continued partnership with the marine corps in offering advanced training technologies and solutions."

"Cubic looks forward to the continued partnership with the marine corps in offering advanced training technologies and solutions using realistic battle simulations to better prepare our marines."

Designed as a fully integrated ground combat training system, the I-TESS II system can be deployed in military operations in urban terrain facilities and non-live fire manoeuvre ranges, located at various USMC bases and installations.

The I-TESS II system incorporates components that include small-arms laser transmitters, rocket-propelled grenades, AT4 anti-tank and anti-armour rocket simulators, and laser detection sensors for personnel, vehicles, mobile and portable command and control systems.

The company will include enhanced software and access to instructional videos in its future deliveries to make the I-TESS II system more accessible with enhanced features.

Developed based on Cubic’s latest laser wireless instrumentation products, the system requires minimal setup time and delivers after action reviews (AARs) immediately upon training completion.
