Simulators

EDM’s high-fidelity simulators are designed to replicate real-world operations, enabling flight crews and defence personnel to train in fully immersive environments with measurable outcomes. Our simulators combine performance-based learning with advanced system replication, supporting a wide range of use cases from procedural training to full mission rehearsal.

Whether for fast jet pilots, transport crews or systems operators, EDM delivers advanced simulation solutions that match real-world conditions and mission requirements.

Simulator types we offer:

• Full Mission Simulators (FMS)

• Flight Training Devices (FTD)

• Flight Procedures Trainers (FPT)

• Part Task Trainers (PTT)

Each simulator is tailored to the customer’s platform, performance targets, and training objectives — from initial procedural drills to complex operational readiness exercises.

Key system features include:

• High-fidelity cockpit or flight deck layouts

• Fully functional instruments, displays and controls

• Full control loading systems with force feedback

• Integrated G-cueing and pilot seat vibration systems

• G-suit and pilot breathing systems

• Night Vision Goggle (NVG) compatibility

• Virtual and augmented outside-world visual systems

• Modular design with scalable fidelity based on training level

Recent platform experience includes:

F-35 Full Mission Simulator
Developed to support high-fidelity, performance-driven training for fast jet pilots operating the F-35 Lightning II.

Eurofighter Typhoon & Hawk
Simulators delivered to BAE Systems, offering scalable training environments from procedural flight operations to tactical mission rehearsal.

High-Performance Load Trainers
Developed in partnership with Lockheed Martin, enabling safe and repeatable cargo and weapons loading procedures under simulated conditions.

All EDM simulators are designed and manufactured in the UK, combining engineering precision with operational realism — whether for frontline defence, aerospace training, or R&D applications.
