The British Army has awarded a land training contract to BAE Systems and Pitch Technologies UK

The Land Training Test & Reference Capability will help define the Army's approach to collective training and select a strategic partner to offer an integrated, mobile, and digitalized system.

BAE Systems and Pitch Technologies UK have decades of experience providing training and simulation solutions to the UK MOD and other governments around the world, working closely with NATO and other organisations in promoting interoperability between allied nations.

The two companies will work with the British Army to define the technical assurance requirements for synthetic warfare training systems which utilise virtual environment to allow military personnel to conduct a huge range of battlefield scenarios and locations. These systems facilitate hugely complex warfighting scenarios that would be either too dangerous or costly to conduct on a training range. This helps to provide soldiers with broader training opportunities whilst also greatly reducing overhead costs.

The collaboration, along with Pitch Technologies UK and supply chain partners including D3A Defence and Envitia, supports more than ten highly skilled jobs across southern England. At least three new roles will be created within the UK SME supply chain as well as opportunities for innovation and skills development in line with the UK Land Industrial Strategy.
