The cost of each of the five transferred simulators of the Corsair anti-tank missile systems is 1,350,000 UAH.

The acquired simulators will make it possible for the ATGM operator to undergo full-fledged training, obtaining practical skills to destroy enemy armored vehicles and helicopters in safe, but as realistic conditions as possible. The Come Back Alive Foundation emphasizes that the military, having an unlimited number of shots, will be able to practice shooting from different distances and in different weather conditions. About the plans to purchase simulators for Corsar ATGM for the funds collected by students, Militarnyi reported in November last year.
