The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) opened its new Armour Simulation Centre at Sungei Gedong Camp on 1 December. 

Developed with assistance from the Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA), the centre consists of the armour driving simulator, and armour gunnery and manoeuvre simulator.

Previously, the SAF only possessed simulation training for the Leopard 2SG. The new driving simulator now provides training for most tracked armoured vehicles in the SAF’s arsenal. There are ten simulator cabins for the Leopard 2SG, Bionix Mk II and Bronco all-terrain tracked carrier. 

A platoon level of four cabins can be mounted on six-degrees-of-freedom motion
