The Italian Army is upgrading its simulation-based training systems under a new contract awarded to OneArc, a BAE Systems subsidiary. The effort replaces existing virtual platforms with VBS4 mission rehearsal software and integrates Mantle digital terrain tools to improve realism and flexibility. The modernization enhances operational planning, collaborative exercises, and post-exercise analysis while maintaining interoperability with allied NATO training systems. The new architecture enables instructors to rapidly generate operational environments, supporting complex and scalable virtual exercises across multiple combat domains.
