The 2006 MT2 Top 100 Issue

Kerrigan Media International and Military Training Technology are proud to announce the 2006 MT2 Top 100. The Top 100 is a listing of companies that have made a significant impact in the military training industry this year—whether it is in distance learning, live training, modeling, gaming, information retention, simulators or any other training component.

Military Training Technology approached more than 600 candidates and also invited any company who thought it was deserving of the distinction to apply. Our editorial board and a panel of independent experts who have been involved in the simulation and training community for years then selected winners. Companies were selected based on various criteria, which, in part, included total military sales, enduser feedback, innovations and need for the solution. Kerrigan Media International and Military Training Technology, of course, reserve the right to reject applicants for subjective reasons.

The Top 100 awardees are listed in alphabetical order. Those that have made the most significant contributions to the training community are recognized with ribbons. A green ribbon indicates the company leads the industry in military sales, regardless of total revenue. A blue ribbon signifies a company leads the industry in innovation. A yellow ribbon designates a company that is quickly rising in the industry and is considered up-andcoming. An orange ribbon denotes a company that had been involved with or spearheaded a program of the year—programs that are revolutionizing training for the military.
