Rajnath Singh Inaugurates Integrated Simulator Complex At Southern Naval Command

The Integrated Simulator Complex hosts state-of-the-art indigenously-built simulators which will significantly enhance practical training in the Indian Navy. These simulators are envisaged to give real-time experience on navigation, fleet operations and Naval tactics and will also be utilised for training personnel from friendly nations, it said.

The Defence Ministry said these technologically advanced simulators are indicative of the government's Aatmanirbhar Bharat initiative and promise great defence export potential for the nation.?

Some of the other indigenously developed simulators in the Complex include Combat Management System and Maritime Domain Awareness Lab. Singh also interacted with senior representatives from the firms involved in the development of these simulators.
