InVeris Training Solutions

What InVeris Training Solutions does

InVeris Training Solutions is a private, Atlanta-area (Alpharetta, GA) defense and public safety training technology company that traces its heritage to Caswell (founded 1926) and FATS (founded 1984), which were combined under Meggitt Training Systems and rebranded InVeris after Pine Island Capital's 2020 acquisition. The company designs, manufactures, sells, and supports an integrated continuum of live fire and virtual simulation training systems — including VR, AR, and projection-based firearms simulators (fats® VR, fats® AR, fats® 100P/100MIL/100LE/180LE/300LE), the patented BlueFire® wireless weapon simulators, LOMAH shot detection, targetry, bullet traps, ballistic baffles, shooting stalls, and turnkey range construction — for US and allied military forces, law enforcement agencies, and commercial range operators. Its most recent product, fats® Drone (December 2025), adds small unmanned aerial system flight simulation built on Bohemia Interactive Simulations' VBS4 platform for reconnaissance, attack, and counter-drone training. In January 2026, coinciding with Caswell's 100th anniversary, the company spun off the Caswell™ Live Fire business as an independent entity, narrowing InVeris's core focus to the fats® Simulation and integrated training portfolio.

The company operates approximately 400+ employees across six countries (US, UK, Australia, Canada, Singapore, Netherlands) and reports an installed base of more than 5,100 simulation training systems, 40,000+ firearms simulators, 75,000+ live-fire target systems, and 13,000+ ranges equipped across 130+ countries. It monetizes through direct enterprise/government hardware sales, software platform licensing (VBS4-based), professional services including police grant assistance, and multi-year maintenance and support contracts under a quote-based pricing model with no public list pricing. Distribution is exclusively direct — enterprise field sales plus intensive trade show presence at I/ITSEC, NGAUS, AUSA, IACP, SOF Week, and related defense and public safety events — with Programs of Record at the US Army and US Marine Corps as anchor relationships. The company is owned by private equity firm Pine Island Capital under CEO Clyde Tuggle.
