“We invested in the research and development of this simulator independently, convinced of its transformative potential. With its successful induction, we foresee significant interest not only from within India but also from friendly foreign nations operating legacy air defence platforms like the L70 gun,” Arjun Dutt Atluri said.
“This marks an important milestone in our journey to becoming a global leader in virtual defence training systems,” he added.
The company further stated that IADCS enhances operator readiness and unit-level coordination through hyper-realistic virtual environments that replicate real-world scenarios, thereby reducing the need for costly and logistically complex live training exercises.
“The solution is scalable and adaptable, offering significant long-term operational and economic benefits.”
“With this contract, Zen continues to demonstrate its capability to conceptualize, design, and deliver complex defence training solutions that uphold national strategic interests and meet international standards.”
