ANN ARBOR, Mich., 18 July 2007. Arotech Corporation Simulation and Training Division's FAAC subsidiary has received an order to produce five additional Stryker Driving Simulators from Science Applications International Corporation, the prime contractor for the Army's Common Driver Trainer (CDT) program.
FAAC is a subcontractor to SAIC on the CDT program. FAAC responsibilities include the development, production, integration, delivery, and training of the simulator units. SAIC is responsible for the visual database and the integration of the Army's OneSAF (semi-automated forces). The CDT Contractor team of SAIC and FAAC is currently completing the fielding of the initial order for nine Stryker simulators.
"The Common Driver Trainer Program is recognized as the Army's choice for any new driver-training requirements for wheeled and tracked vehicles," says Maj Dan Gamel, CDT Project Director, U.S. Army PEO STRI PM Ground Combat Tactical Trainer. "The successful development of CDT and the initial variant for Stryker has validated the Common Driver Trainer concept, enabling production-only efforts like this order for additional Stryker Trainers, as well as laying the foundation for straight-forward extension of the CDT to simulate other vehicles in the future."
