In the evolving landscape of military preparedness, VirTra’s V-Marksmanship® emerges as a leading solution. This software that is part of all VirTra simulators is a comprehensive platform that enhances marksmanship training through immersive, customizable, and ballistically accurate simulations.
Customizable Training Environments
V-Marksmanship® offers unparalleled flexibility in creating diverse training scenarios. Instructors can tailor environments by adjusting:
- Weather Conditions: Simulate various climates, from rain and fog to different wind conditions, to prepare soldiers for any operational environment.
- Time of Day: Train under varying light conditions, including dawn, dusk, or nighttime to enhance adaptability.
- Target Configuration: Deploy an unlimited number of targets, including paper, steel, moving, and non-moving types, positioned at varying distances and orientations.
This level of customization ensures that each training session can be uniquely tailored to meet specific operational requirements and training objectives. Users will be prepared for numerous possibilities.
Train with your own Weapon
To bridge the gap between simulation and live-fire exercises, VirTra provides drop-in laser recoil kits compatible with various firearms. These kits allow trainees to use their actual duty weapons within the simulation, providing authentic recoil and weapon handling experiences. The integration of these kits ensures that the skills developed during simulation are directly transferable to real-world scenarios.
To deliver authentic recoil feedback, the recoil kits rely on CO₂-powered magazines. These magazines are designed to mimic end-of-magazine scenarios and allow instructors to introduce malfunctions that trainees must diagnose and resolve. They are also weighted to closely match the feel of a real magazine.
Thorough Debrief and Performance Analysis
As with scenarios, marksmanship performance can be thoroughly reviewed at any time. Every trainee’s shot placement is easily identified, showing who fired which shot and when.
Debrief is further facilitated through the Trainee Monitoring and Recording (TMaR) system. This hardware and software combo enables instructors to review trainees’ actions, including reaction times and decision-making processes, by recording and replaying simulation sessions. These sessions can be viewed immediately or saved for later.
