Virtual Soldier
Potential privates! Ever wanted to experience soldiering and take part in a near real ‘battlefield experience’, well now you can!
Locations
- Hertfordshire
What does the activity include?
Before going into action the recruits will learn Infantry skills from authentic military instructors and have a full safety briefing. Then it’s off to battle!
Using a purpose built infra-red training system, codename ‘Head-hunter’, recruits will use the SA80 style rifle and the fully automatic light support weapon which fires an invisible beam up to 40m that eliminates the ‘enemy’ by hitting sensors located in the helmet. An alarm will sound denoting a ‘casualty’ and downloads any ammunition remaining in the weapon.
‘Casualties will need to report back to the ‘Aid Post’ to be electronically reactivated before getting back in the action. Close quarter combat scenarios will be undertaken including battlefield pyrotechnics to bring this experience to life!
