KNDS virtual Simulation Software package

Our simulation environment is built entirely on an in-house codebase, giving us complete end-to-end control over every subsystem. With no dependencies on external vendors, we can modify, integrate, and expand capabilities precisely as mission requirements evolve.

One universal software framework

A single, cross-functional platform supports all KNDS simulators—driving, tabletop, and gunnery/combat—ensuring every training need is addressed within one coherent system.

Modular and scalable architecture

The framework can be tailored to any simulator configuration, allowing components to be added or adapted without restructuring the entire system.

Native networking (DIS over standard Ethernet)

Simulators connect seamlessly through the DIS protocol using standard Ethernet, requiring only simple configuration. This capability reflects more than 30 years of KNDS Training & Simulation expertise.

Optimized for standard COTS hardware

The entire software package runs reliably on off-the-shelf IT equipment, reducing costs, simplifying logistics, and maximizing uptime.

Field-proven reliability

KNDS USA training systems are widely deployed and recognized for their performance, effectiveness, and operational dependability.

Expanded Capabilities Across the KNDS Simulation Framework

Developed in collaboration with experienced military training experts worldwide, the KNDS simulation suite aligns directly with real-world operational needs:

Consistent, fair-fight Computer-Generated Forces (BATSIM)

All connected simulators share identical CGF visuals and behavior, ensuring true interoperability and realistic joint-operations training.

High-fidelity weapon-system modeling

KNDS’s deep expertise as a leading ground-based weapon-system manufacturer informs precise simulation of system logic, dynamic response, and real-world behavior.

Como: DIS-based radio and intercom simulation

Realistic voice communication environments support training in coordination and command procedures.

3D sound simulation

Directional audio enables trainees to perceive heading and distance for enhanced situational awareness.

Record & Replay with advanced AAR tools

Developed with Army instructors worldwide to support thorough debriefing, performance assessment, and structured learning.

Unified Instructor Management Interface (IMI)

A consistent interface across all simulators enables instructors trained on one system to operate any other KNDS device without additional preparation.

Integrated databases and MilCIG visual system

Harmonized data and KNDS’s high-performance MilCIG visuals provide maximum realism, quality, and responsiveness.

Dynamic Terrain

Proven KNDS technology accurately simulates terrain deformation and destruction—including artillery craters, structural collapse, and debris fields that alter mobility and tactical conditions.

Rich library of dynamic objects

High-detail objects allow instructors to build, enrich, and adapt scenarios with precision.
