For over thirty years, Pitch Technologies has championed simulation interoperability through open standards, becoming a foundation for secure, scalable, and robust training solutions. This year at ITEC, we’re proud to strengthen this mission by co-exhibiting with our friends at Bohemia Interactive Simulations (BISim). Together, we’re amplifying the message that interoperability isn’t just a goal—it’s the core of how we operate.
The future of training interoperability is open and flexible, with multiple platforms and environments integrating seamlessly. With the recent approval of HLA 4, Pitch is advancing how training systems interact by enhancing security, scalability, and adaptability. As we evolve our product offerings, we’re taking a streamlined approach—drawing on decades of experience in distributed systems to craft comprehensive, unified interoperability solutions.
Join us at ITEC 2025 to experience the next era of simulation interoperability firsthand! See our latest solutions in action, speak with our experts, and explore how Pitch’s innovations can enhance your training and simulation programs. Pitch is here to connect, collaborate, and demonstrate the power of open standards. Together with our friends at BISim, we’re committed to making integration effortless—whether you’re deploying new training systems, enhancing existing capabilities, or ensuring seamless interoperability across domains.
Understand the power of HLA 4
HLA 4 is officially approved, marking a major milestone for the future of interoperability. Pitch is now moving beyond previews to full-fledged implementation, and you can already start exploring HLA 4 today:
- Test new features using the preview functionality in Pitch pRTI
- Use the Pitch Visual OMT beta for HLA 4 modeling
- Explore preview features in Pitch Developer Studio to generate HLA 4 integration code
The first HLA 4-compliant releases of Pitch pRTI and Pitch Visual OMT will be released in Q2 2025, with Developer Studio following later in the year. Read about all the new features in HLA 4 in our latest blog, and stop by our booth to get a hands-on look at the new generation of Pitch products!
Live Demonstrations: Seamless Interoperability & NATO MSG-223
Standards-based Interoperability
Experience our Forward Observer (FO) and Command & Control (C2) demonstration, which showcase how Pitch products and HLA 4 enable seamless simulation system integration using open standards.
- Real-time integration of Forward Observer and C2 systems
- Exercise monitoring, control, and after-action review (AAR) with EXCON
- Cross-Domain-Solutions (CDS) for secure data exchange across security domains
- Dynamic scenario featuring cyberattack simulations and tactical decision-making
This demonstration highlights how Pitch’s COTS products provide a secure, scalable, and proven backbone for interoperability, networking, data logging, radio simulation, and debriefing. Choose Pitch to save time, reduce costs, and focus on what matters—creating impactful simulation systems.
