Threat Representation Systems
Threat Representation Systems are platform-specific training assets designed to replicate adversary weapons, effects, and employment methods within Force-on-Force or Force-on-Target training environments.
Built on OPCON’s EXS-Series architecture, these systems provide realistic visual and audio cues that mirror real-world threat capabilities, enabling units to train detection, identification, and tactical response under conditions that closely reflect modern battlefield adversaries—without the risks associated with live munitions.
Robotically Operated Battlefield Immersion/Effects
R.O.B.I.E.
A mobile battlefield immersion platform built on the MVP Robotics architecture, designed to introduce movement, unpredictability, and adaptive stimulus into military training environments. R.O.B.I.E. supports autonomous and semi-autonomous operation, allowing it to maneuver throughout the training area, reposition dynamically, and operate in coordination with training objectives.
​
Capable of traversing the training environment and following units as scenarios evolve, R.O.B.I.E. adds a living element to otherwise static ranges—forcing continuous situational awareness, real-time decision-making, and response to changing conditions during each training iteration.
Force-on-Target
80mm Mortar
The 80mm Mortar System is a threat representation system designed to mirror the physical profile and battlefield use of an 80mm mortar in force-on-target training. Integrated on OPCON’s EXS-Series platform, it delivers realistic visual, audio, and blast effects at the point of impact without the use of live munitions.
The upper mortar tube is a removable, replaceable component intended to be swapped quickly if impacted or damaged during training, while the lower assembly contains the protected EXS-Series hardware and is positioned behind cover. This configuration allows units to engage, identify, and react to mortar threats in a realistic training environment while maintaining safety, durability, and rapid reset between iterations.
Force-on-Force
60/80mm Mortar
The 60mm and 80mm Mortar Systems for Force-on-Force training are mobile threat representation systems designed to replicate the appearance and employment of mortar systems operated by a dismounted opposing force. Built as a single, solid assembly on OPCON’s EXS-Series platform, the system is optimized for durability and rapid repositioning during live exercises.
Integrated with OPCON’s lightweight backpack deployment system, these systems can be carried, emplaced, displaced, and re-employed by training units or an OPFOR team to accurately simulate mobile mortar tactics. The system delivers controlled visual, audio, and blast effects without live munitions, enabling realistic counter-mortar detection, reaction, and maneuver training while maintaining safety, repeatability, and high training tempo.
