One of the country's leading information and communication technology players, HeiTech is featuring state-of-the-art defence and security capabilities aimed at empowering military operations and increasing mission readiness.

HeiTech is demonstrating its technological innovations on key components of defence mission readiness -- integrated tactical combat control system (ITACCS), advanced tactical laser engagement system (ATLES) synthetic visual environment solution (SYVES), digital display terminal (DDT), material tracking system rack (MATRACS) and weapon management system (WMS).

The company's participation in Lima '09 displays its capabilities and expertise in providing customised command, communications, computer and intelligence network systems (C4I) for air, land and naval use in a dynamic operating environment from the operator level to the tactical and higher strategic levels.

HeiTech president Safiee Mohammad said: "HeiTech is pleased to participate in one of the world's premier exhibitions and hopes to leverage on Lima's appeal to the defence industry to showcase our capabilities in providing defence training and support services across the entire range of combat skills for Malaysian defence forces.

"Our wealth of experience and proven application of technologies can help play a key role in the mission readiness of the defence forces."

Visitors to the HeiTech's booth at the Mahsuri International Exhibition Centre will have the opportunity to see two main key components of the company's defence and security solutions, ATLES and DDT.

They will get to see military combat training in action through ATLES, a cutting-edge training system developed specifically to meet the increasing requirement for a realistic battlefield environment for soldiers.

ATLES helps to solve multiple problems that have impede realistic field training such as training cost, noise pollution and environmental destruction.

DDT is a revolutionary computing platform that enables commanders to strategise and plan tactical military training and warfare, integrating hardware and software infrastructure that lets customers capture and analyse real-time information from multiple inputs in multiple format.

"As a longtime partner of the government, our capabilities have been instrumental in anchoring modern military solutions, giving greater empowerment to the defence forces to increase their mission readiness," said Safiee.
