Award recognizes companies that have made a major contribution to military training

Colorado Springs, CO — September 24, 2009 — Combat Training Solutions, a leading provider of Non-
Pyrotechnic IED Simulators and Battlefield Effects Training for military and defense organizations,
announced today that it has been recognized by Military Training Technology (MT2) as one of 2009’s Top
Training & Simulation Companies
. This is the fifth year that Combat Training Solutions has been
recognized for this award. The company also received honors in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008.

The MT2 2009 Top Training & Simulation Companies, from Kerrigan Media International and Military
Training Technology, is a listing of companies from around the world that have made a significant impact
on the military training industry across the spectrum of technologies—serious gaming, live training,
constructive simulation, modeling, virtual simulation and others. These companies’ products allow service
men and women to train and rehearse for missions in theater, or to prepare for deployment at home
station. An impartial panel selected the winners from a very competitive group. Companies were selected
based on various criteria, which in part, included total military sales, innovation, and program
effectiveness. The 2009 submissions were especially competitive.

“We are extremely honored that Military Training Technology has recognized us a leading solutions
provider in the military training market for the fifth year in a row,” said Tony Colón, CEO of Combat
Training Solutions. “We’ve received this recognition every year since starting the business in 2005 and
we expect to keep winning. Over the coming year we plan to live up to this vote of confidence by
delivering new IED simulators, battlefield special effects and mobile training support to our customers in
the US military and other markets.”

Since receiving its first MT2 Top 100 award in 2005, Combat Training Solutions has continued to build
momentum and solidify its position as the leading provider of non-pyrotechnic simulators for the US
military and law enforcement. This recognition is a testament to the company’s ongoing commitment to
