Igla MANPADS Simulator – A Training Complex for Operator Preparation

Comparison bg
Approach To Tactical Training img

The Igla Man-Portable Air Defense System (MANPADS) is one of the most widely used short-range air defense systems. Its effective deployment depends on the operator’s skill, which requires repeated training in realistic conditions.

The Igla MANPADS training complex by SKIFTECH is a modern military simulator that enables trainees to practice all stages of MANPADS deployment without live missile launches, while fully immersing them in tactical scenarios.

Mounted or Integrated Emitter

Installed on the Igla launcher replica, it simulates missile launches during training.

How Does the Training Complex Work?

  • Target Elimination Mission Is Assigned

    The operator receives a task to engage an aerial target using the Igla replica with an integrated emitter.

  • Target Detection and Tracking Simulation

    A drone, simulating an air threat, follows a scripted flight path to recreate a realistic tactical scenario.

  • Simulated Launch and Hit Confirmation

    If the operator performs all actions correctly, a simulated launch is registered, and the UAV responds to the hit with visual indicators.

  • Performance Evaluation and Debriefing

    The software logs each launch and provides a detailed analysis of the operator’s actions for skill improvement.

Compatibility with Other MANPADS

The simulator can be adapted to work with other man-portable air defense systems that share similar targeting principles, such as:

  • Piorun (Poland)

  • Grom (Poland)

This flexibility makes the simulator a universal solution for training operators across various MANPADS platforms.
