Southampton, PA., USA, October 8, 2012 - Environmental Tectonics Corporation's
("ETC" or the "Company") Simulation Division, located in Orlando, FL, has
been
awarded a contract from the United States Air Force Europe (USAFE) to deliver an
Advanced Disaster Management Simulator (ADMS(TM)).

The portable ADMS-Airbase training system will be delivered to USAFE at Ramstein
Air Base in Germany for use in emergency management and disaster response
training. ADMS-Airbase provides realistic training with an authentic military
base environment that includes hangers, residential areas, runways and military
specific aircraft including C-130, F-15, F-16, B-52, A-10 and Cougar. The ADMS-
Airbase system will be used to train and prepare emergency responders and
incident commanders for a variety of incidents including aircraft accidents,
mass casualty situations, road traffic accidents, structural and wildland fires,
terrorism and protestors. The training   simulator will also be used by USAFE to
train for specific chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear and explosive
(CBRNE) incidents.

USAFE chose a portable system to allow both on-base training and deployment to
off-site locations. The ADMS-Airbase system features ETC's Signature Simulation
Technology including the SmartModel(TM) library, which enhances exercise
development and creativity by allowing unlimited scenario capabilities.
SmartModel library objects and elements, such as aircraft or dirty bombs, can be
added to any scenario to create additional challenges for the trainees.

"ADMS-Airbase is a highly realistic training system designed to prepare military
facilities for situations that are nearly impossible to train for," said Marco
van Wijngaarden, President of ETC Simulation. "We are very pleased that we were
selected by USAFE. The network of DoD users is growing which allows for the
sharing of exercise scenarios and best practices within the user community."
