5 Introduction
VBS3Fires is a professional call-for-fire training system which combines the flexibility and stunning
visuals of VBS3 with a sophisticated training and simulation system. VBS3Fires allows the user to
construct a call-for-fire which is then processed by the system and actioned accordingly within VBS3.
The system simulates exterior and terminal ballistics to a high level of detail and supports a wide
array of munitions, fuse types and firing guns.
VBS3Fires uses visual displays; one to display the VBS3 virtual environment and one to display the
VBS3Fires graphical user interface.
