Prepare the UAS crew of the future
Meeting security needs
The demand for unmanned aerial systems (UAS), also known as remotely piloted aerial systems (RPAS), to meet global security needs has increased, bringing with it another set of challenges: preparing and training UAS pilots and sensor operators to be ready for their next mission.
Airbus' advanced, high-fidelity UAS simulation trainer supports the development of a versatile crew pool with the flexibility of skills to operate different platforms and missions. It is designed hand in hand with operational pilots to meet the latest requirements.
