Providing next generation readiness today
SAN DIEGO – May 12, 2025 - Cubic Defense announces the completion and delivery of the laser-based shoot-back systems with automatic target detection, recognition, and instrumentation to the world’s largest urban training facility, SAFTI City.
“The impressive engineering project was a collaborative effort consisting of teams from across the Asia-Pacific region, all coming together to design, manufacture, deliver, and install a range of advanced training systems for SAFTI City,” stated Russell Marsh, President of Cubic Defense. “The live training simulation systems provide world-class training results, ensuring the Warfighter of the future is well prepared for the demands of complex, urban environments.”
Cubic’s deliverables included an advanced computer vision system for tracking targets and enabling the targets to autonomously shoot-back at training forces. Additionally, Cubic provided 11,000 sensors, which consist of 8,000 building-integrated anchors with ultra-wideband indoor tracking and 3,000 shoot-through-wall modules.
Alicia Combs, Cubic’s Ground Training Vice President and General Manager, said, “We are extremely proud to have delivered the next evolution of vehicle and soldier tracking instrumentation with new enhancements included. The vehicle instrumentation system now shows crews the direction from which they were hit. The soldier system enables seamless tracking from outdoors to indoors, by using GPS and radio communications outside and pairing with building infrastructure to use ultra-wideband communications indoors.”
Cubic’s work at SAFTI City involved team members from Cubic Defence New Zealand, Cubic Technologies Singapore and Cubic Defence Australia.
