Berg / Amsterdam, November 20, 2025
Reiser Simulation and Training GmbH and Royal NLR – Netherlands Aerospace Centre today announced a strategic partnership to deliver high-fidelity H225M Caracal helicopter tactical training devices to the Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) with Reiser in the role as the prime. This collaboration brings together Reiser’s proven track record in building next-generation helicopter training devices and NLR’s expertise in advanced mission simulation technologies.
Under the agreement, the two organisations aim to jointly develop and deliver H225M Caracal tactical training media for air and other training solutions for ground crew, with the goal to enhance mission readiness and training effectiveness for Dutch crews. The training environment is poised to include fully networked, immersive simulation systems tailored to the operational requirements of the RNLAF H225M fleet.
Following design and production, the sustainment phase will involve increased efforts inside the Netherlands, thereby guaranteeing local presence, support and oversight. “Reiser is proud to partner with NLR to support the RNLAF,” says Dr. Johannes Hain, CEO of Reiser Simulation and Training. “This potential project reflects our shared commitment to deliver cutting-edge training solutions that combine operational realism, precision, and adaptability.”
Mark van Venrooij, Vice President Aerospace Systems at NLR says “Together, we are ready to deliver highly realistic and reliable mission training solutions, ensuring crews are fully prepared for complex missions.”
