Simunition® Mission
To provide the most realistic training systems possible so that officers and military forces around the world can engage in experience building and ultimately lifesaving exercises.
Simunition® History
In the late 1980s, General Dynamics-Ordnance and Tactical Systems-Canada Inc. (GD-OTS Canada), headquartered in Le Gardeur, Canada, recognized a growing need in the military and law enforcement communities for more realistic training. In response, six innovative training munitions were developed under the trademark Simunition® – known as the world’s most realistic training system.
