TRU Simulation + Training
American aviation simulation company From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
TRU Simulation + Training (TRU, usually pronounced as in "true") is an American manufacturer of flight simulators and training devices for civil and military markets. It is a subsidiary of Textron and was formed in 2014 when previously acquired simulator manufacturers Mechtronix and OPNICUS were merged with part of Textron Systems division. A further company, business jet training provider ProFlight, was acquired and merged later that year.[1][2]

In 2014, TRU was selected by Boeing for the development and supply of a 737 MAX full flight training suite, and two years later the company secured a 10-year agreement for a similar product for the newly developed 777X.[2][3][4]
In November 2020, the non-US based (Quebec based) civil aviation business (previously Mechtronix sites) was sold to CAE [5] after Textron announced shutting down this section of its TRU Simulation business in July of the same year.[6] TRU’s business model is now focused on producing flight simulators for the business aviation, rotorcraft, and military markets.
