Bohemia Interactive Simulations (BISim), a wholly owned subsidiary of BAE Systems, Inc., has been awarded a five-year enterprise license contract to deliver the Digital Virtual Trainer (DVT) for the Canadian Department of National Defence (DND), with three additional option years of maintenance support. The DVT program will provide immersive, flexible, and highly scalable synthetic training to support mission readiness across the Canadian Army.
Built around BISim’s ecosystem of simulation products, the DVT solution empowers Canadian Army personnel to plan, rehearse, execute, and review complex missions in immersive virtual environments across the globe through realistic first-person training experiences and large-scale collective training exercises.
“We’re proud to support the Canadian Army’s vision for modern, flexible training with a proven, battle-tested virtual platform,” said Pete Morrison, chief product officer at BISim. “Whether rehearsing for rural maneuvers or complex urban operations, the Canadian Army can train with confidence on highly authentic virtual terrains.”
At the heart of the DVT solution is Virtual Battlespace 4 (VBS4), paired with the Blue IG image generator to deliver immersive visual realism and seamless integration with legacy systems. The DVT solution is designed for interoperability and ease of use with advanced tools for exercise control, after-action review (AAR), and more.
To maximize flexibility and give the Canadian Army the ability to replicate a global range of training scenarios with remarkable fidelity, DVT also includes TerraTools Platinum. BISim’s advanced terrain generation software enables the rapid creation of geo-specific, mission-tailored environments using real-world Geographic Information System data.
The DVT contract award follows a competitive evaluation process and reflects BISim’s strong track record of delivering mission-critical simulation solutions to allied defense forces worldwide.
