Lockheed Martin has developed its MRT-LITE F-35 training device to supplement the current training devices.

Lockheed Martin has delivered more than 100 F-35 Full Mission Simulators (FMS) to customers in the US and across the globe, Raashi Quattlebaum, VP of F-35 Training & Logistics, told Shephard at the I/ITSEC event in Orlando.

However, such training devices cannot achieve everything.

Air forces are always looking to add training capabilities to address specific training and mission rehearsal needs, which led Lockheed Martin to develop the F-35 Mission Rehearsal Trainer (MRT) – Lightning Integrated Training Environment (LITE).

MRT-LITE provides customers with a solution that allows eight devices to fit into the same footprint as the F-35 FMS, according to Lockheed Martin.
