Ukrainian combat simulator manufacturer L7 Simulators has received NATO codification for its entire simulator line-up<\/a>, the company told Defender Media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each simulator has been assigned its own NATO Stock Number (NSN) \u2014 a unique 13-digit code used to identify the product in the supply systems of NATO member states. This simplifies logistical tracking, catalogue searches and procurement. The company stressed that codification is not product certification against NATO technical standards, but a mechanism for unambiguous identification of an item within the Alliance\u2019s common defence logistics system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside the codification of its existing line-up, L7 Simulators has obtained a status that allows it to independently codify new products as they are developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company was registered in the NATO codification system in December 2024, when an NSN was assigned to its UNITS integrated training system, which had previously been approved for use by Ukraine\u2019s Ministry of Defence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L7 Simulators currently has more than 50 types of simulators<\/a> integrated into the UNITS ecosystem, including firearms training systems and simulators for anti-tank weapons, air defence and unmanned systems. Products featured on the company\u2019s website include simulators for the Browning M2, Stinger, NLAW, Carl Gustaf, RPG-7 and SPG-9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

L7 simulators are used to train units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the National Guard and other security forces. More than 500,000 servicemen have been trained on them in total, including more than 70,000 who received free training at the company\u2019s training centre.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
