Simulation is a widely accepted training aid in many industries, notably aerospace, and the naval and marine sectors are no exception. The cost of a simulator is a fraction of the cost of the real vessel, and allows manoeuvres to be carried out in a controlled environment and in complete safety. Emergency situations can be simulated in complete safety, allowing various manoeuvres to be tried out to give students a thorough understanding of the consequences of different courses of action. Simulation may be used for training, mission rehearsal, evaluation, briefing and debriefing.

Of course, ultimately any student, whether a naval officer or AUV operator, needs training and experience on real vessels, but, given pre-training using a ship simulator or AUV simulator, the student can be better prepared for a sea training exercise and will benefit accordingly.
