Designed by former Special Forces operators, the Optimal Shooting Tactical System revolutionises tactical training by enabling immersive sessions outside of traditional ballistic facilities. Lightweight, self-contained (battery-powered) and ultra-mobile, it can be set up in minutes at any location. In addition to 360° dynamic shooting and operational stress management, it trains critical decision-making: OSTS does not just simulate the stress of the field — it pushes operators to react, evaluate and decide: should I shoot or not? Each scenario is designed to test tactical judgement as well as accuracy. Compatible with training ammunition and airsoft, it allows you to create realistic environments for teams, pairs or individual operators, with scenarios calibrated to develop reflexes, lucidity and control under pressure.
