The report provides updates on various military developments across the globe. The US Army has received its latest AH-64E Guardian multirole combat helicopter simulator, enabling enhanced training for aviators. The UAE has sent military vehicles and equipment to Chad to support its fight against terrorism and enhance border protection. Poland is purchasing several hundreds of Spike LR anti-tank guided missiles for its army, and the Australian Army has acquired an advanced virtual reality (VR) tactical training system. The US Navy has also approved the service life extension of four Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers.
  

Key Points: 

  1. US Army’s Helicopter Simulator: The Fort Cavazos Flight Simulation Division of the US Army received its latest AH-64E Guardian helicopter simulator at Yoakum-Defrenn Army Heliport in Texas, providing realistic flight training modeled on army helicopters like the CH-47 Chinook and UH-60 Black Hawk.
  2. UAE’s Support to Chad: The UAE has shipped military vehicles and security equipment to the Republic of Chad, strengthening its capabilities in counter-terrorism and border protection. The initiative follows a series of bilateral agreements, including a military cooperation agreement signed in June.
  3. Poland’s Missile Purchase: Poland’s Minister of National Defense announced the purchase of several hundreds of Spike LR anti-tank guided missiles for the Polish Army, with deliveries planned from 2023 to 2026. The contract, worth about $100 million, includes additional launchers for LR/LR2 spike missiles, manufactured locally under license from Israeli company Rafael.
  4. Australia’s VR Training System: The Australian Army acquired the advanced OP-1 virtual reality tactical training system from American tech firm Operator XR. This cutting-edge technology allows soldiers to conduct virtual missions using their specific service weapons and equipment, run from a high-powered tablet.
  5. US Navy’s Ship Extension: The US Navy has extended the service life of four Virginia-based and Japan-stationed Arleigh Burke-class (DDG 51) guided-missile destroyers, which have been in service since the 1990s.
