Press Release:
FATS, Inc. announces the delivery of the first BluefireTM Glock 17 weapon simulators to law enforcement and military organizations.
FATS Bluefire weapon simulators utilize Bluetooth wireless technology to incorporate features previously only available on tethered weapons. A Bluefire Chemical Spray and Taser have already been released. FATS is currently developing the SRS, M4, Beretta M9, SigP226 and Walter P99QA simulator for its Bluefire product line of weapon simulators.
“The Bluefire Glock 17 is the first fully-sensored, patented, tetherless firearm simulator for the training of law enforcement and military personnel,” said Ron Mohling, FATS Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. “FATS is proud to be in the forefront of cutting edge technology to improve the overall training capabilities of law enforcement and military personnel around the world.”
Since there is no cord attached, the Bluefire Glock 17 improves training value by allowing realistic freedom of movement and magazine reloading. The number of rounds in the magazine of the Bluefire Glock 17 replicates the number of rounds in the real weapon. The simulator must also be reloaded with a new magazine each time the magazine is emptied.
Making training more realistic, FATS virtual weapons resemble the fit and function of live weapons to include recoil. FATS virtual training provides accurate, real-time diagnostics including point-of-aim, weapon status, trigger pressure and cant.
FATS, Inc. (OTC: FATS) designs and sells virtual training systems that improve the skills of the world's military, law enforcement and security forces. Utilizing quality engineering and advanced technology, FATS provides a comprehensive range of training capabilities that include small and supporting arms, judgmental, tactical and combined arms. The company serves U.S. and international customers from headquarters in Suwanee, Georgia, with branch offices in Australia, Canada, Singapore, Netherlands and United Kingdom. FATS, an ISO 9001:2000 certified company, celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2004. The company Web site is www.fatsinc.com.
