Vietnam produces P-18M radar combat simulation system

To enhance realistic training, simulation technology (CNMP) is increasingly widely applied in the field of defense education and training.

According to PK-KQ newspaper, Division 377 organizes the exploitation of the technical and tactical features of the equipped weapons and technical equipment. At the same time, it deploys research on technical innovation initiatives, ensuring the improvement of service quality for technical training.

In 2017, the Division's initiative on training simulation software for the P-18M fixed radar console on personal computers won second prize at the Army; the initiative on the automatic device for charging compressed air into the waveguide of the C-75M control station won third prize at the Army level and an encouragement prize for the entire army.

Vietnam's P-35 round-trip radar station.

The success is the result of the combination of the fields of mathematics, information technology, modeling, cybernetics, electronics, mechanics... Along with the P-18M radar simulation training software, the Military Technical Academy (KTQS) has also successfully developed a "virtual shooting range" model with a small, compact design (installed on an area of ​​15 m2 to 30 m2).

This system is fully integrated with the features of a real training ground and real weapons, solving common problems encountered during the learning and training process.

It is known that in recent years, the Air Defense - Air Force Service has been equipped with many new and modern weapons and equipment. Some old weapons have been improved to increase their lifespan, suitable for high-tech warfare conditions.

However, at present, the Air Defense - Air Force Academy has not been equipped with the weapons, equipment and materials as mentioned above. To overcome these shortcomings, the academy has paid attention to and invested in the application of simulation technology in education and scientific research.

In particular, design and manufacture of flight command and navigation training room simulation equipment; firing command training room equipment for anti-aircraft artillery squadron commanders; P-37 radar guidance device equipment...

Simulation of the S-125M1A control station combat crew command post; air defense missile regiment combat command post; S-300PMU-1 missile complex simulation project; UK-10-2TM cabinet simulation initiative of the S-125-2TM PK missile control station...

In particular, the Academy has successfully implemented a Ministry of National Defense-level project on "Research, design, and manufacture of practical training equipment for aviation engineers on a number of Su-27 aircraft systems".

The introduction of the above equipment into training has helped students to increase their practice in real life, equipment, and facilities, contributing to improving their level and ability to master equipment after graduation. At the same time, it helps the unit save a part of the training cost, because the manufacturing cost is much lower than the same type of imported equipment.
