UFA ATCOACH and ATTOWER Air Traffic Control simulators accredited by the US Army in Germany

UFA, Inc. announced today that the UFA ATC simulators in use by the US Army at Illesheim, Grafenwoehr, and Ansbach in Germany have received formal accreditation by the US Army Directorate of Simulation for Air Traffic Control (ATC) Tower and Radar training.
The simulators were accredited using UFAs industry-leading ATVoice voice recognition and response product to allow controllers to train without the need for support staff. The units at these facilities have three (3) ATCoach Radar training systems and share an ATTower 3D Tower simulator installation. Previously a number of UFA Radar and Tower training simulator installations at Ft. Rucker and multiple ARNG units have been accredited.

ATTower provides local, flight data, and ground Controller training capabilities using photorealistic 3D visuals custom developed airport databases generated by UFAs ATView image generator. The ATTower configuration consists of high definition displays for presentation of out of the window display for Illesheim AHP, Grafenwoehr AAF, and Ansbach AHP. ATTower also offers simulated weather & information displays, surveillance displays, and simulated ATRadio ETVS VCS fully integrated with ATVoice.

The Units use ATCoach to train on the operation of the AN/TPN-31 ATNAVICS radar set, remain proficient with their controlling skills, and gain familiarity with deployment airspace locations. ATCoach supports training of arrival and final operations presenting high fidelity simulation of the ATNAVICS surveillance and precision approach radar displays. ATVoice voice recognition technology is fully supported and provides for automated command execution during training exercises.

UFA supplies simulators to the US Army, US Air Force, US Navy, the FAA STARS and ERAM programs, and numerous international AirportAuthorities and Air Navigation Service providers.
