Simulators & training aids

Simulation Program was formed in 1976, during development of the flight simulator for aircraft crew training. It was also a strong impulse to the development of all areas of computer technology and the dissemination of activities. Its development was the result of research and work of a multidisciplinary team, formed from several organizational units of the Institute.

Between 1980 and 1991 fifteen types of simulators and training aids were realized (more than 60 units of all types of simulators were produced). In the period 1980-1983, for the purpose of flight simulator development, black and white visual system was developed with computer-generated images (CGI) for night take off and landing and in 1986 the development of the color visual system was completed.

Flight simulators, especially the CGI visual systems put Institute Mihailo Pupin, and also Serbia, among the few countries that were able to develop and produce such systems, and the number of flight and tank driving simulators were made for export .

The most notable results in this field are:

• Flight simulators for three types of military aircraft
• Submarine Crew Trainer
• Air War Gaming Simulator
• Family of Tank Driver Trainers
• Anti-Armor Artillery tactical Trainer, etc.
