Don Andrus, VirTra Systems’ President and COO, today announced the sale of multiple weapon simulators to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The purchase includes borderless screens, elevated training platforms plus a full sound effects package for each simulator. Trainee Monitoring and Recording (TMaR) was also included in the purchase as well as 18 patent-pending Threat-fire return fire simulators to enhance stress and realism during training.

This is the third sale of VirTra’s virtual training simulators to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the systems will be installed as soon as possible in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
