Accelerating Armored Vehicle Development Using Ballistic Simulation

Weapon and armored vehicle manufacturers face new threats such as drones and drone swarms that current products were not designed to address. Developing and qualifying new or improved systems typically takes years and requires extensive prototyping and testing.

Specialized ballistics engineering simulation software can reduce these lead times by up to half by enabling accurate, predictive simulations using digital twins of materials and threats. This significantly reduces physical testing and accelerates delivery of new capabilities to the warfighter.

Join us for a complimentary webinar focused on vehicle applications, showcasing numerical simulations for mine and IED blast threats and the use of the Vulnerable Area Assessment (VAA) tool to evaluate vehicle vulnerability to kinetic threats.

Attendees will learn:

• How new threats drive new armor and vehicle requirements

• Techniques to accelerate development using virtual engineering, testing, and digital twins

• How to simulate mine and IED blasts and validate results with experimental data

• How to apply the VAA tool to identify weak points in an Infantry Fighting Vehicle
