Who trains on it
Law enforcement air support, border and maritime patrol, military ISR, search and rescue, UAS sensor operators.
Euramec Group — North American Facility
Euramec USA builds type-specific flight simulators, EO/IR sensor simulation systems, and the replica hand control units that go with them — engineered in Belgium, assembled and supported in Colorado, and delivered to defense, government, and law enforcement operators worldwide. We also deliver the training that runs on them: pilot, tactical flight officer, and full-crew instruction on our own devices, at your site or at our Colorado facility.
Who we are
Euramec USA, Inc. is the North American facility of the Euramec Group — the Belgian simulation manufacturer that has been building certified training devices since 1991. Everything the group engineers in Lokeren is built, integrated, and supported here in Centennial, Colorado.
For a U.S. agency, that means European engineering depth with a domestic contract vehicle, domestic assembly, and a support team in your time zone. For an international customer, it means a second source and a second delivery point.
What we do
Three lines of business, one continuous capability — we manufacture the device, integrate the sensors and mission systems, then put your crews through it.
Type-specific flight training devices from AATD through FNPT II and Level D-class — rotary and fixed wing, built to the aircraft, not to a template.
The GIST family — Gimbal Imaging Simulation Trainers replicating MX-series and Star SAFIRE turrets, scalable from a single deployable station to a full ISR crew environment.
High-fidelity replica HCUs with the same grip, switchology, and feel as the operational unit — so muscle memory built in the sim transfers straight to the aircraft.
Our specialty
It started in 2008 with one question from a sensor operator to a simulator company: could you simulate our FLIR 8500? The answer built a product line. Today our EO/IR simulation is used to qualify tactical flight officers and sensor operators who cannot afford to learn on the aircraft.
Recorded from our simulation — not the operational sensor
Law enforcement air support, border and maritime patrol, military ISR, search and rescue, UAS sensor operators.
An hour on the sim costs a fraction of an hour in the aircraft — and lets you fly the scenario that never happens on a training sortie.
Opening 2027
The Euramec USA Aircrew Mission & Safety Training Center opens in Centennial, Colorado in 2027 — putting pilot, tactical flight officer, and full-crew training under one roof, on our own devices.
AATD instrument and currency, type and avionics transition.
Sensor operator qualification and recurrency — on site or remote.
Pilot and TFO training the mission together, as they fly it.
Why Euramec USA
We compete on fidelity, certification, and the length of the relationship — not on being the cheapest box in the room.
We work from manufacturer specifications, so the cockpit in the device matches the cockpit in the hangar.
Same switches, same avionics, same ergonomics. Training that transfers on day one, not after a conversion course.
A registered Veteran-Owned Small Business with domestic assembly and support — straightforward for federal, state, and municipal buyers.
Direct projection visuals give a wider field of view than panel-based displays. No bezels cutting through the horizon.
