Simulated Weapons

VSS creates replica weaponry at any level of fidelity for use in simulation.

Our own simulators benefit from this range of weaponry, however we also supply other customers to augment their own training solutions.

Aside from our Off the Shelf solutions we can also provide customised weapons to integrate into any system.

Custom Weapons

Custom Weapons

VSS can replicate any existing weapon for use in simulation, at any required level of fidelity. This can range from basic block functionality to full operation at high fidelity. Malfunctions can be built into the weapon, and any required sensors for the desired simulator functionality.

 Main Features:

  • Detailed Replicas
  • Operable components
  • COTS interfaces (USB)
  • Instructor Malfunction controls
