Romania Air Force To Get Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon Training System

Lockheed Martin has won a contract from Romanian Air Force (RoAF) to deliver the SciosTrain suite of simulators for F-16 Falcon jets. 

The company will deliver a tailored simulation-based F-16 training environment for the Romanian Air Force apart from logistics support services, with an estimated delivery year is 2019.

The family of systems training system includes a suite of full mission trainers and combat tactics trainers that can be networked together, the company announced Monday.

"Our solution builds on our training system with hardware and software tailored for Romania's F-16 fleet," said Sandy Samuel, vice president of Lockheed Martin's Training and Simulation Solutions.

"We look forward to delivering mission support for Romania's aircraft fleet and advancing training capabilities to strengthen their national defense," Samuel added.

The technology can be networked together to enable multiple pilots to train together on advanced scenarios.
