SAN DIEGO, Oct. 23, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Cubic
Corporation (NYSE: CUB) today announced that its Cubic Global
Defense (CGD) business division successfully participated in
Exercise Aurora 2017. Aurora 17 is a national exercise conducted
each year by the Swedish Armed Forces to strengthen and increase
its defense capabilities. As the largest military exercise in
Sweden, Aurora 17 involved more
than 19,000 members from the Swedish Armed Forces, as well as
personnel from Denmark,
Estonia, Finland, France, Lithuania, Norway and the
United States.
Cubic's CATS Metrix exercise control software allowed the
Swedish Land Warfare Centre (MSS) to monitor, control and evaluate
the exercise in addition to providing extensive After Action Review
capabilities. The software was installed in two mobile trailers
which were deployed during the brigade-level exercises in the
Mälardalen and Stockholm regions.
The system was operated by the Swedish MSS and supported by Cubic
staff.
"Cubic is proud to have supported Sweden's largest training exercise with our
exercise control software and personnel," said Dave Buss, president of Cubic Global Defense.
"Our highly scalable and easy-to-use training system successfully
evaluates defined goals, doctrine and tactics during live exercises
and we are pleased to have provided these capabilities to improve
the effectiveness and readiness of the Swedish Armed Forces."
Aurora 17 took place from September 11 to
September 29 in Mälardalen, Stockholm, Gotland and Gothenburg, Sweden.
