Simulator technology company BlueRoom Simulations Australia has signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding with business representation company Pride of India Pvt Ltd, on the sidelines of Asia's largest military aviation exhibition.
Both companies attended the Aero India 2025 exhibition in Bengaluru, India from February 10 to 14 this year. The MoU was formalised at the Australia Pavilion marking a significant step towards bringing advanced simulation technology to the Indian Armed Forces and the broader defence industry.
Under the new arrangement, BlueRoom will introduce mixed reality simulators to India, enhancing military, aeromedical, and combat medical training applications under the Make in India; championed by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
“We are excited to collaborate with Pride of India to introduce our mixed reality BlueRoom simulator to the Indian Armed Forces,” according to BlueRoom Simulations Australia CEO Benjamin Krynski
“This partnership further highlights the deep connection Australia has with India, mutual values of democracy and freedom that we desire to protect together. If we can be a small part of this through supporting the Indian Armed Forces protect the lives of their soldiers and the lives of our allies we are fulfilling our mission.”
The BlueRoom Simulator was innovated through an Australian Defence Innovation Hub contract in 2022 and is in use with the Royal Australian Air Force with systems pending deployment into the UAE and Netherlands.
The system allows for the seamless integration of real-world equipment into virtual worlds while allowing for medical staff to practice real skills with their own hands.
BlueRoom solves the problem of accessing expensive platforms such as aircraft or simulated combat zones for training. The system increases the capability and capacity of an operator to rapidly train and re-train their soldiers.
“This partnership with BlueRoom Simulations Australia underscores our commitment to bringing world-class simulation technology to the Indian defence sector,” according to Ashish Sharma, Director, Pride Of India Group.
“By leveraging our extensive experience in defence representation, we aim to ensure seamless integration and deployment of BlueRoom’s cutting-edge solutions in India.”
The signing of this MoU at Aero India 2025 marks a new chapter in Indo-Australian defence collaboration, fostering innovation and enhancing training capabilities for critical sectors in India.
