Its aim is that    the academies of war of the Ecuadorian armed forces use it for    their improvement processes, and ultimately as a support tool    in scientific and technological environments for public safety    and national defense.  <\/p>\n<p>    We selected SWORD because this is a cost-effective    off-the-shelf aggregated constructive simulation that we can    immediately apply to the training of our commanding officers    for military missions as well as global safety missions,    Colonel Pablo Carrillo, CEOTAS Project Manager, Ecuadorian    Army, declared.  <\/p>\n<p>    We are particularly proud that MASA SWORD has been selected by    the Ecuadorian Army. This decision shows the growing momentum    enjoyed by SWORD in Latin America, commented Juan-Pablo    Torres, MASA Groups President and CEO. This new customer    adoption illustrates how SWORD can be used by progressive and    cost-conscious military organizations on a global basis for    trainings related to military missions and to Operations Other    Than War.  <\/p>\n<p>    The deployment of SWORD at CEOTAS will be performed starting    this month by     Latinmedia International LLC, one of MASAs value added    resellers in Latin America, and a regional leader in the areas    of simulation and visualization in real time. This deployment    is the first phase of a long-term project that implies a    large-scale deployment to take place in the coming months.  <\/p>\n<p>    About MASA  <\/p>\n<p>        MASA Group (MASA) is a global company focused on the    development of Artificial Intelligence-based Modeling &    Simulation (M&S) software for the Defense, Homeland    Security, Emergency Management, Serious Games and Games    Development markets.
