Mountain Horse Solutions, in Partnership with 4GD Delivers High-Tech Close-Combat Training Capability to U.S. Special Forces
December 10, 2020, Colorado Springs, CO USA — Mountain Horse Solutions, a U.S. Defense and Mission Critical Equipment Supplier, announced its partnership with U.K. company and close-combat immersive specialist 4GD to deliver their Level 1 (Deployable) 4GD SmartFacility™ to U.S. Special Forces.
The 4GD Level 1 (Deployable) is the deployable component of the 4GD SmartFacility™: a high-tech, one-of-a-kind urban combat training environment that blends virtual and physical reality providing non-lethal Close Quarter Battle training and tactics to warfighters.
Bill Allen, President of Mountain Horse Solutions said “4GD’s training technology provides game-changing capability enhancements to America’s Special Forces. Mountain Horse is honored to be working with 4GD to supply this exciting new technology.”
The moveable and reconfigurable facility hones mental agility by providing an ever-changing training environment through 4GD’s SimWall™, a non-ballistic modular panel system, reducing the cost of transporting personnel to other training facilities, while maximizing opportunities for training.
SimWall™ allows users thousands of rooms and building variations, all configurable within minutes. This prevents predictable training and recreates realistic operational decision making during Close Quarter Battle (CQB).
With the ability to immerse operatives in a host of different environments, including a jungle camp or a desert compound, the facility’s panel design is easily configurable to reflect a range of combat scenarios. In addition, half-height panels are available for instruction.
James Crowley of 4GD said, “We are proud to have delivered this facility to the US SOF, especially during the difficult circumstances brought about by COVID-19. Our Level 1 Facility will provide a first-class immersive training experience for their warfighters, using the best in military training technology ensures they can fully prepare for missions in almost any environment.”
