Top SimulaTion& Training

2013

Companies

12 th AnnuAl

Military Training Technology is proud to announce the 2013 Top Simulation & Training Companies list. This list recognizes companies that have made a significant impact in the military training industry throughout the current fiscal year in areas as diverse as simulation, distributed learning, serious gaming, visual systems, embedded training, targets and ranges, database modeling and other training components.

These companies’ products and solutions allow U.S. airmen, Marines, sailors, soldiers and Coast Guardsmen to train and rehearse for missions in

theater, or to prepare for deployment at home station. An impartial panel selected the winners from those who submitted applications for consideration. Companies were selected based on various criteria which, in part, included total military sales volume, innovation and program effectiveness.

The Top Simulation & Training Companies are listed in alphabetical order. Those that made the most significant contributions to the training community are recognized with ribbons. A red ribbon indicates a company that was involved in or led a program of

the year that is revolutionizing military training. A yellow ribbon designates a company that is quickly rising in the industry or has recently released a technology or solution that is considered up-and-coming. A green ribbon denotes that the company leads the industry in military sales, regardless of total company revenue. A blue ribbon signifies that the company leads the industry in innovation.

KMI Media Group and MT2 thank all of the companies that submitted nomination packages for the 2013 competition.

maraTHon TargETSmarathon Targets addresses a

fundamental gap in current live-fire training the lack of realistically moving targets. our mission is to make small arms live-fire training as realistic as it can be, short of actually stepping into the combat zone. The battlefield is a bad place to receive on-the-job training.

ours targets are autonomous ro-bots which look, move and behave like people—their paths are unpredictable, and their human-like motion makes them challenging to hit.

australian Defence has been using our smart targets since 2008. other customers include the u.s. marine Corps, the u.s. army, and Canadian Forces.
