SOGITEC INDUSTRIES has been awarded by Sweden’s Defence Materiel Administration (Försvarets materielverk, FMV) a contract for the training of Swedish Air Force (AF) and FMV T&E (Test and Evaluation) NH90 crews.
Training will be delivered to Swedish AF and FMV T&E personnel and will take place at the French Army Aviation Academy’s NH90 Joint Training Center (Centre de formation interarmées, CFIA) in LE CANNET-DES-MAURES, south-eastern France.
CFIA is equipped with a Full Flight Simulator (FFS) and a Multi-Role Training Device (MRTD). The MRTD is a fixed-base full mission simulator (FMS) with all FMS tactical, flight and procedure training capabilities.
The agreement is valid until the end of 2021. After France and Finland, Sweden is SOGITEC’s NH90 Training Media’s third customer. Spanish and Belgian Forces also use CFIA facilities.
SOGITEC INDUSTRIES is in charge of the development, the production, and the delivery of seven NH90 training devices, in both TTH and NFH versions, for the French Army, the French Navy and the Finnish Army Aviation.
