The Australian Maritime Alliance (AMA), a joint venture between engineering group and shipbuilder Civmec and defence services company Serco, is using <\/span>Pivot Maritime International as core simulation partner on the Land 8710 \u2013 Phase 1A Army Littoral Manoeuvre Vessel Medium (LMV-M) project.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a statement from AMA on Tuesday,<\/span><\/a> Serco said its General Manager Maritime Operations, David Astbury, recently visited Pivot Maritime in Launceston to be updated on the latest program and design activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Astbury said the partnership will help address the significant step change in maritime and amphibious operations presented through the Oboe LMV-M design. <\/span>The Oboe is described as<\/span><\/a> a \u201cstate-of-the-art amphibious vessel, capable of carrying a diverse range of combat and support vehicles\u201d.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

Pivot\u2019s simulators would play an important role in addressing the major vessel handling differences between the legacy LMC-8 Landing Craft and the much larger next-generation LMV-M vessel, said Pivot Maritime\u2019s Managing Director Jeffrey Hawkins.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt just over 45 metres in length, the AMA\u2019s proposed Oboe design will offer significantly increased load carrying and sea keeping capabilities over the LCM-8 and allow Army planners to deploy the LMV-M force at considerably longer ranges throughout the South-West Pacific and around Australia\u2019s northern coast.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Upskilling Australian Army personnel to operate larger amphibious watercraft within Blue Water and potentially operationally Satellite Denied environments would be critical for the successful introduction, according to Serco.<\/span><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n

\u201cAs part of our ongoing preparations for this important program, we\u2019re actively engaging with our Australia-wide partner network to ensure we remain ready to deliver this critical program for Australia,\u201d added Astbury.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe AMA has invested considerable effort in working with Australia\u2019s premier maritime training and simulation experts to develop a [holistic] program that will allow Army personnel to test their mariner skills and gain confidence within a safe and controlled simulation environment.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPivot\u2019s Australian developed simulators are at the leading edge of immersive environments and allow personnel to learn new skills and trial various operations and manoeuvres across a diverse range of simulated environmental and operational conditions.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
