ASTi

Advanced Simulation Technology inc., known as ASTi, is a United States company that designs hardware and software for training, simulation and operational environments where sound and communications are needed. Its website describes ASTi as a deliberately small business, based at 500A Huntmar Park Drive in Herndon, Virginia, delivering product and support since 1989. Its stated focus is fast and dependable voice-over-IP communications for training and simulation.

Scale

ASTi reports that it has delivered 12,970 systems, that more than 800 installation sites have its equipment, that it has supported more than 540 companies and government agencies, and that its products are installed in 49 countries. It says many customers have stayed with the brand for more than 15 years and still use their original systems.

Approach

The company says customers want to train aviators, not network engineers, and want instructors to teach flight fundamentals instead of acting as towers or other aircraft. It builds commercial off-the-shelf products, supports customers at each step, and helps them identify the right solution for their needs. It was named by Washingtonian Magazine as one of the 50 Great Places to Work in the Washington DC area for the third time.

Events

ASTi is listed as a sponsor of the APATS Asia Pacific Aviation Training Summit 2027 and I/ITSEC 2027, and as an exhibitor at I/ITSEC 2027.
