F-Drones releases a simulator for training FPV operators: on Independence Day, all Ukrainians will receive free access
Ukrainian drone manufacturer F-Drones is launching a simulator for training FPV operators – on Independence Day, anyone can get free access to the game on Steam.
Ukrainian drone manufacturer F-Drones is set to release an FPV simulator for training pilots, with all Ukrainians receiving a free access on Independence Day. The game, to be launched on Steam, simulates combat FPV scenarios and features F-Drones' drones, physics, and characteristics. The simulator will incorporate various terrains, battery life, radio horizons, communication, electronic warfare, and drone configurations.
Military involvement was key in designing mission diversity and accurately representing communication configurations. F-Drones has also noted that the simulator will be used for military training purposes. A limited version will be available on Steam, while a more comprehensive, non-public version is available for military and training centers upon request.
CEO Stanislav Khutor emphasized the importance of pilots logging at least 10 hours of drone flight before practical training, a requirement that mirrors the American military's training methods. F-Drones made history as the first Ukrainian firm to export combat drones to the US, supplying the Pentagon with 2,000 F10 FPV attack drones as part of the Drone Dominance project.
