The software is designed to provide realistic anti-piracy training
VSTEP, developer of maritime training simulators, has announced an enhancement of its simulator software, NAUTIS Naval Task Force. The software is designed to provide realistic anti-piracy training as well as critical response training to possible piracy scenario.
VSTEP states that with the improvement of the software it strives to meet its customer’s demand for a next generation anti-piracy training.
NAUTIS Naval Task Force can be used for identification of suspicious behavior of approaching vessels using visual identification, AIS & ECDIS as well as pirate response training.
The software’s scenario editor allows for adding different types of motorized pirate vessels and a fully adaptable approach route. The programme thus enables crew to determine and train navy and target vessel response strategy, with helicopters and a range of different navy and coast guard intercept vessels available for simulation.
NAUTIS Naval Task Force is designed specifically for the navies and law enforcement agencies. It is expected to aid navigation planning and training, as well as more specific naval tasks.
