Simutech Solutions has announced a strategic partnership with Bluedrop USA. 

This collaboration brings advanced tactical training simulation products to operators across the Asia Pacific and Middle East at a time of increasing demand for defence and civil readiness.

The partnership combines Bluedrop’s deep industry experience and desire to expand its global footprint with Simutech’s broad regional customer base and reputation for unbiased support. 

It comes against a backdrop of heightened global geopolitical tensions, where governments are facing increased pressure to enhance capabilities in defence, search-and-rescue (SAR), aerial firefighting, and law enforcement.

“We’re excited to bring these class-leading training devices to the Asia Pacific and Middle Eastern regions, ensuring that our customers can access the highest quality training,” said Daniel de Vries, CEO of Simutech Solutions. 

“Operators in these regions are looking for reliable, high-fidelity solutions to meet complex mission requirements, and this partnership ensures they have access to the best technology available with the support needed to ensure long-term success.”

The agreement will see Simutech Solutions bring Bluedrop’s full product range to market, including the Hoist Mission Training System (HMTS) and Rear Crew Mission Trainer (RCMT). 

“Our partnership with Simutech Solutions is about delivering mission-ready capability where it matters most,” said Bob Ellis, CEO and president of Bluedrop USA Inc. 

“Operators across the Asia Pacific and Middle East are facing increasingly complex operational demands, from high-risk SAR to defence and public safety missions. By combining Simutech’s trusted regional presence with Bluedrop’s high-fidelity mission training systems, we’re ensuring crews have access to the realism, adaptability, and support they need to train effectively and respond with confidence.”
