The simulator cockpit will use Vrgineers’ electronics with full integration of Somnium VR1 and XTAL CAVU mixed-reality systems.
JFJ Aviation & Defence GmbHÂ has entered into a partnership with Czech-US technology company Vrgineers to co-develop an unrestricted version of a 5th Generation Fighter Simulator to support pilot training and defense simulation.
The simulator cockpit will feature Vrgineers’ proprietary electronics and will be fully integrated with the Somnium VR1 and XTAL CAVU mixed-reality systems. This cutting-edge setup will support advanced pilot simulation, mission rehearsal, and technology demonstration in a fully immersive environment.
This marks the first direct collaboration between JFJ and Vrgineers, combining their respective strengths to deliver affordable, high-fidelity simulation solutions to defense and aerospace customers. The partnership aims to accelerate innovation by leveraging shared expertise in cockpit design, mixed-reality integration, and simulation hardware.
The project reflects both companies’ commitment to modernizing the simulation market, which has long relied on legacy technologies such as flat screens and basic projection systems. By introducing unrestricted mixed-reality capabilities, the simulator will offer pilots a more realistic and responsive training experience.
The unrestricted 5th Generation Fighter Simulator is expected to debut at upcoming defense exhibitions, where it will showcase the future of pilot training and operational readiness.
