Real Training. Real Standards. Real Scenarios.
At Strategic Defense Academy, we combine live-fire drills, classroom instruction, and immersive scenario-based training to create complete, capable defenders. Our cutting-edge 180 degree simulator is a powerful tool in that mission—offering force-on-force decision-making in lifelike situations you can’t safely replicate on a flat range. Whether you’re clearing rooms, stopping a carjacking, or facing a lethal threat at home, the simulator lets you pressure-test your skills with real Glocks, recoil, and real-time feedback. It’s not just training—it’s transformation.
