Thales Training & Simulation Ltd. is a multinational company which manufactures simulators, including full flight simulators and military simulators, and provides related training and support services. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Thales Group.〔(Thales Training & Simulation Ltd: Company Overview ), ''BusinessWeek''.〕 ==History== The origins of the company date back to the incorporation of Redifon in the United Kingdom in 1946.〔 In 1948, the company moved to the then new town of Crawley in West Sussex. In 1981, the parent company British Electric Traction changed the company name to Rediffusion Simulation Limited (RSL) to take advantage of the then familiar Rediffusion brand name. In 1988, the company was bought by Hughes Aircraft and renamed Hughes Rediffusion Simulation (HRSL). In 1994, the company was taken over by Thomson-CSF, who merged it with Link Miles (acquired by Thomson-CSF in 1990) and renamed the company Thomson Training & Simulation (TTSL). The merged companies were based at the Manor Royal site at Crawley. In 1998, the simulation business of Wormald Technology of Australia was bought and renamed Thales Training & Simulation Pty Ltd (TTSP). In the United States, Burtek, bought in 1979 by Thomson-CSF, was renamed Thomson Training & Simulation Inc. At the end of 2000, the company was renamed Thales Training & Simulation (TTS) when the parent company re-branded using the Thales name. Thales sold its civilian fixed-wing simulation business to L-3 Communications Link Simulation and Training in August 2012.〔 The purchase included the TTS Crawley plant and not Thales' military rotary-wing (helicopter) simulation business.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.twpltd.com/news-events/Thales+Sells+Civil+Fixed-Wing+Sim+Business+to+L-3/1648 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Thales Training & Simulation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
