Powered by AI-enabled learning and immersive AR/VR environments, we transform complex mission training into measurable readiness. Train today before any risk becomes real.
Our Services
Immersive Aviation Training
| In high-stakes aviation missions, precision execution isn’t optional. Our live-virtual-constructive (LVC) and virtual maintenance trainer (VMT) platforms use AR, VR, and AI to recreate real-world conditions with zero operational risk. Validated by seasoned maintainers and aligned with OEM standards, every system meets the highest thresholds for accuracy and compliance.
With over 1,000 devices deployed across six aircraft platforms, our training solutions accelerate qualification timelines, sustain proficiency, and keep your force mission-ready for global operations. |

Multi-Modality Learning Frameworks
Training is rarely a single, standalone event — it’s a system that sustains operational excellence. Our multi-modality learning frameworks meet personnel where they are: in the classroom, online, or through self-paced environments that adapt to every learner and mission.
Our programs ensure every operator, maintainer, and leader performs with confidence from day one through every phase of the mission lifecycle. Secure, DoD-compliant platforms integrate instructor-led sessions, virtual labs, immersive AR/VR simulations, and data-driven feedback that replicate real-world conditions and accelerate readiness.

Curriculum Development & Certifications
Every mission relies on the strength of its curriculum. Through our certified training programs, our Instructional Systems Designers (ISD) and their development teams transform complex requirements into measurable proficiency. As the accrediting body for multiple DoD and OEM programs, we build validated and performance-tested curricula in direct partnership with commanders and maintainers.
Our teams can stand up new programs in as little as 72 hours. From software development and systems training to Army medical and marksmanship instruction, our certified programs scale across U.S. and allied forces. We deliver so that every soldier, technician, and operator learns to the same exacting standard of excellence.

Featured Program
U.S. Air Force Distributed Mission Operations Center, Kirtland AFB, NM
As a prime contractor, Akima subsidiary RiverTech delivers the operational, technical, and analytical expertise behind the Air Force’s most advanced live-virtual-constructive (LVC) and distributed mission operations (DMO) environments. The team plans and executes large-scale training and test events, integrating C2ISR systems, non-kinetic operations, and tactics development into a unified training ecosystem. By connecting Air Force, Joint, and Coalition simulators through an Operational Training Infrastructure, RiverTech enables forces to rehearse and validate modern warfighting tactics in a realistic, scalable combat environment.
Featured Program
Training Support TADSS, Fort Benning, GA, Fort Dix, NJ, Fort Hood, TX
At the U.S. Army’s Maneuver Centers of Excellence, Akima subsidiaries AIS and RiverTech operate Training System Support Centers (TSSC) that deliver the full spectrum of Training Aids, Devices, Simulators, and Simulations (TADSS). Acting as prime contractors, they provide personnel, equipment, and instruction for systems like the MILES family, Engagement Skills, IEDES, and MRTC Trainers, as well as blast-effects and vehicle-dismount simulations. The teams also fabricate custom devices and distribute Graphic Training Aids at no cost, ensuring every soldier trains with validated, mission-ready systems that replicate real-world combat conditions and sustain readiness across multiple sites.
Featured Program
Special Operations Forces Planning, Rehearsal, Execution, Preparation (SOFPREP)
Akima’s Compass Point team advances the SOFPREP mission by delivering the geospatial backbone of U.S. Special Operations Command. Through sophisticated 3D Scene Visualization Databases and GEOINT data, SOFPREP enables realistic mission planning, rehearsal, and execution for Special Operations Forces worldwide. The team modernized USSOCOM’s 2-petabyte SPPN Data Center into a hybrid cloud environment, improving speed, scale, and interoperability across the enterprise. With on-demand data production and cross-training on tools like Virtual Battlespace and FlightSafety Airfield Generation, SOFPREP empowers operators to visualize terrain, simulate scenarios, and respond to global events within hours.
Featured Program
Computer-Based Instructional Development II (CBID II)
Under the CBID II program, Akima subsidiary Pinnacle developed advanced digital training systems and courseware to enhance readiness across multiple aviation and ground platforms. Using its virtual maintenance trainer (VMT) and the CBID II-defined ADDIE process, Pinnacle built immersive simulations for MH-47G, A/MH-6M, and MH-60M maintenance procedures, enabling maintainers to practice complex tasks in a risk-free virtual environment. The team also partnered with OEMs to produce interactive training for the Common Robotic System (Individual) and Explosive Hazard Predetonation Roller, delivering web-based, standalone, and embedded modules that support both new equipment and sustainment training. The program reflects Pinnacle’s role in transforming traditional technical instruction into scalable, high-fidelity digital learning.
Featured Program
Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic – IC Engineering and Logistics Support Services
Akima’s ASE team has supported NIWC Atlantic for over 20 years, delivering full-spectrum training and technical expertise for the Navy’s C4I systems across more than 70 fleet configurations.
