The Marine Corps has purchased simulators that will teach crews how to handle dangerous situations while driving in urban war zones. The combat convoy simulator, made by Lockheed Martin, is an immersive trainer in which five-person crews, seated inside replicas of humvees and medium tactical vehicle replacement trucks, will progress through scenarios projected onto screens surrounding the vehicles. Missions range from patrol and logistics support to high-value target extraction and medical evacuation. The simulators are an improvement over current ones, said 1st Lt. Geraldine Carey, a spokesperson for the Marine Corps Systems Command.
