The DiSTI Corporation, a worldwide developer of state-of-the-art virtual displays, has successfully delivered a high fidelity and highly interactive training application for the HEMTT M978 Tanker to the Oshkosh Corporation. With this application, students are effectively trained on the fueling and de-fueling procedures of the Tanker virtually allowing Oshkosh to drastically reduce overall training time and increase student comprehension and throughput.
As a part of the U.S. Military family of Heavy Tactical Wheeled Vehicles (FHTV), the Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Trucks (HEMTT), the M978 is a bulk liquid transporter essential to the success of armed forces daily operations. Operation and maintenance training for this sophisticated vehicle has traditionally consisted of instructor presentations and limited hands on experience with an actual HEMMT M978 tanker. With this highly interactive fueling lesson, students are trained in an immersive virtual environment and will gain critical situational awareness of the vehicle prior to potentially hazardous hands on experience.
