    Several add-ons and accessories are available for TTS target mechanisms to increase training realism and stress.

    Enemy fire simulators and hit indicators are added to the target appliances and are used to give a more realistic training environment. The simulators make use of standard pyrotechnic ammunition or are non -pyrotechnic simulators, increasing the safety of the range personnel while reducing the life cycle costs. As more and more modern weapon systems are equipped with infrared night visors, all our target appliances can be equipped with thermal target heating systems, which provide a thermal image on the target that can be clearly identified.
