Micro Nav wins Simulation Contract in Venezuela

Micro Nav Limited, formed in 1988 and based in Bournemouth, has, with its partner GECI Group (www.geciweb.com) won a contract to supply its BEST simulation solution to Venezuela. GECI will be responsible for providing all hardware and spares for the simulator, as well as the installation and commissioning in Venezuela. The contract is for an undisclosed sum.

The contract will be made up of 10 BEST Tower, Radar, Controller and Supervisor positions, complemented with a bespoke suite of aircraft and livery combinations and presented using Micro Nav’s 8 Channel Image Generation onto two 3D 180° flat panel projected displays.

Micro Nav’s BEST simulation solution will enable for the first time, the region’s Air Forces to cross train and support the simulation of both hostile forces and friendly fighter aircraft. Aircraft can be equipped with a variety of air-to-air radar, weapons and fuel loads and can be assigned targeting, mission and engagement behaviours. BEST provides the facility to simulate air defence scenarios under peacetime or wartime conditions with differing associated performances.

Sales and Marketing Director, Michael Saunders said, “We are delighted to win the contract with GECI. It is further recognition of our longstanding and successful relationship. This contract award is significant in that the end user will benefit from the Micro Nav BEST simulator capability alongside a dual 180° and 360° simulated tower environment”.
