CAE has been awarded a contract by the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) to update the visual system of the NH90 NTH Sea Lion full-mission simulator suites for the German Navy with CAE Prodigy, CAE’s Image Generator (IG).
The update enhances the visual system supporting naval aviation training and reinforces CAE’s longstanding partnership with Germany’s defence forces and its commitment to delivering high-fidelity, mission-relevant training solutions.
On the two full-mission simulators updated with CAE Prodigy, CAE is introducing major advances in visual immersion for complex rear-crew mission environments.
The system extends immersion beyond the cockpit with synchronised, high-resolution exterior and Mixed Reality (MR) environments tailored to rear-crew roles.
By combining advanced display configurations with next-generation image generation, these true-to-life visuals support immersive simulation for demanding multi-role NH90 missions, including hoisting, door gunnery, and cargo operations.
“By integrating CAE Prodigy into the NH90 NTH Sea Lion full-mission simulator training environment, we bridged the gap between simulated and real-world training, which supports more effective mission rehearsal, sharper decision-making, and improved operational readiness for today’s demanding missions,” CAE Defense & Security, President, Pascal Grenier, stated.
“We are honoured to support the Bundeswehr through our close cooperation in delivering advanced mission and operational support.”
The contract award builds on CAE Prodigy deployments for European defence forces delivered late last year by CAE, including the CH-53GS helicopter simulator for Germany and Eurofighter training devices for Austria.
