CAE Tropos-6000 image generators (IGs) enhance the realism of pilot train- ing through extensive use of advanced weather simulation including wind condi- tions, lighting and variable visibility, re- alistic animation of rotor downwash and recirculation effects, high-density urban environments, moving objects and people, geographically correct landmarks and off- shore structures, 3D sea states, and a worldwide database derived from satellite imagery.
According to CAE, they are the first to incorporate artificially intelligent human form and moving vehicle dynamic simu- lation for civil helicopter training tasks and mission scenarios. CAE has delivered more than 100 high- fidelity synthetic training devices repre- senting nine different manufacturers – AgustaWestland, Bell, Boeing, Euro- copter, Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), Kaman, MD Helicopters, NH In- dustries, and Sikorsky. They are also a leader in military ro-
tary-wing simulators for the U.S. Special Operations Forces, U.S. Navy, the Italian Navy, German Armed Forces, and others. CAE-owned and joint venture heli- copter training operations are located in five global regions: • Asia – the new Helicopter Academy to Train by Simulation of Flying (HAT- SOFF) joint venture with Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) in Banga- lore, India will begin offering complete training solutions this summer for the Bell 412, Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin, and both civil and military variants of the HAL-built Dhruv.
• Europe – Rotorsim, a joint venture of AgustaWestland and CAE in Sesto Calende, Italy, offers A109 and AW139 simulators.
• Latin America – a new training cen- tre in Mexico City will offer Bell 412 training this summer.
• Middle East – the Emirates-CAE Flight Training in Dubai offers Bell 412 training.
• North America – CAE’s North East Training Centre in Morristown, New Jersey offers Sikorsky S-76C+/S-76B and Rotorsim AW139 training.
