Zen Technologies gets Indian patent for T-90 tank gunnery training simulator

HYDERABAD: Defence training and anti-drone technology solutions provider Zen Technologies Ltd on Monday said it has been granted an Indian patent for its basic gunnery training simulator that is designed for the T-90 tank.

This is the 12th patent to be secured by the company in the financial year 2024-25 and strengthens its position in the advanced military training technologies space.

The patented simulator, developed to enhance the technical and operational skills of a tank gunner, replicates real-world battlefield conditions with features such as target acquisition, ammunition selection, and firing simulations, the company said.

“The system’s advanced motion platform realistically mimics pitch, roll, and surge dynamics, offering an immersive experience for trainees,” it said, adding that the containerised design ensures easy deployment, enabling training in diverse environments with minimal logistical challenges.

Though the simulator is designed to address the training needs of the T-90 tank crew gunner, it can also be easily reconfigured to serve the training needs of the crew gunner of any main battle tank (MBT) in the world, making it suitable for global defence markets, Zen Technologies said.
