Entrol has confirmed the sale of a customised H125 FNPT II MCC simulator to the Tunisian Air Force, operating under the Ministry of National Defence of Tunisia.
The agreement, formalised in July 2025, marks the second simulator project delivered by the simulator manufacturer to the Tunisian Air Force, reinforcing the trust established between both organisations and further strengthening Entrol’s presence in the international defence and public sector markets.
The simulator’s cockpit is customised to match the customer’s specific AS350B fleet configuration. To ensure maximum fidelity and a seamless transition from simulator to aircraft, the flight deck integrates real Garmin dual GDU1060 hardware.
Physical immersion is complemented by a standard cylindrical visual projection system integrated with a D-BOX vibration system, providing authentic tactile feedback during all flight regimes and manoeuvres.
Designed to prepare pilots for complex operational conditions in North Africa, the device incorporates a comprehensive visual and navigation database tailored specifically for the Tunisian Air Force as follows.
- Official Navigation Charts: complete navigation data covering all official Tunisian airports, provided directly by the local aviation authority.
- Tactical Landing Sites: 15 customised, geo-specific helipads across the region.
- Environmental & Tactical Scenarios: specific atmospheric conditions, including realistic desert sandstorms and initial NVIS (Night Vision Imaging System) integration.
- Dedicated Instructor Station: Dual IOS seating layout designed for both the instructor and an observer, optimising tactical evaluation and debriefing.
The H125 FNPT II will be utilised for advanced military mission training, covering procedural drills, emergency management, NVIS tactical flights, and formation flying practice within specialised local scenarios.
With this delivery, Entrol reinforces its position as a trusted global partner for defense operators, offering flexible, high-precision simulation technology tailored to public safety and military standards.
Juanjo Lechosa, Business Development Manager at Entrol, said: “Working with military operators like the Tunisian Air Force reinforces entrol’s capability to deliver highly specialised, mission-ready simulation devices,” states. “Our goal with this H125 project was not just to deliver a certified device, but to provide a tailored environment where pilots can practice high-risk procedures – such as NVIS operations or flying through sandstorms – with total realism and zero risk.”
