In Koblenz, Thales also supports the German Armed Forces in mission preparation and follow-up with specialised simulation solutions
Thales is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its subsidiary site in Koblenz, corresponding to the length of the relationship with the company’s strategic customer, the German Armed Forces.
In Koblenz, Thales supports the German Armed Forces in mission preparation and follow-up with specialised simulation solutions that enable different users, such as aircraft and combat vehicle crews or infantry forces, to train their skills and abilities. For over 30 years, simulation technology has been developed, produced and sold in Koblenz. This includes simulators for firearms training, military pilot training, and all related services.
The systems range from classic firing training to complete mission training for vehicle crews on air, water and/or land vehicles up to individual and group training for military users and civilian security authorities: small arms trainers, door gunner training concept, weapon-specific basic training, mission-specific scenarios, analysis and evaluation options, traffic management systems, and communication tracking and interference simulation systems (KESS). The simulation systems can be used individually or together within an interconnected and combined training scenario.
“In our fast-paced times, looking back on such a history with its long-term customer relationships is something special for us as a company. I congratulate the colleagues of Thales Deutschland at the Koblenz site on this anniversary and would like to thank them for their commitment. […] Koblenz is an IT location, which is very important for us being a technology company. Be it for the purpose of networking, information exchange or the recruitment of qualified employees. This strong connection does not only exist with Koblenz but also with our strategic customer, the German Armed Forces, with whom we have been cooperating as partners for 60 years,” said Oliver Dörre, CEO and Country Director Thales in Germany.
