About
  • The Modular Amphibious Egress Trainer (MAET) is an underwater egress trainer that represents specific aircraft, cockpits and cabin emergency escape exits. The system replicates the cabin of a CH-53 and MV-22.

  • The Submerged Vehicle Egress Trainer (SVET) is a UET that has the same modular core and rotational capabilities as the MAET, but dedicated for the High Mobility Multi-Purpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWV) & the Assault Amphibious Vehicle (AAV).

  • The Shallow Water Egress Trainer (SWET) is a single-seat emergency egress trainer. This is used to introduce Marines to water submersion and emergency breathing devices.

BENEFIT OF UTILIZING THE Underwater egress trainer
  • Provide Marines with the knowledge, skills and abilities to safely egress a submerged vehicle/aircraft. 

  • Teaches Marines the principles of breathing compressed air while performing egress procedures.

  • Teaches Marines and sailors the principles and skills required to successfully survive a catastrophic event.

TRAINING REQUIREMENT FOR THE Underwater egress trainer
  • Medical Screening Forms (available Range Management Support System).

  • Current Swim Qualifications.

LOCATIONS FOR underwater egress trainer
  • MCB Camp Pendleton, C.A.

  • MCB Okinawa, Japan

  • MCB Hawaii

  • MCB Camp Lejeune, N.C.

DESCRIPTION
  • Dry Rollover Egress Training (DRET) is comprised of the HMMWV Egress Assistance Trainer (HEAT), MRAP Egress Trainer (MET), and JLTV Egress Trainer (JET).

  • All DRET systems have the ability to train egress principles that can be applied to increase survivability during a catastrophic event which can only be trained via the use of simulation. 

BENEFITS OF UTILIZING THE DRET:
  • Provides Marines the necessary training to survive a rollover and egress properly.

  • Builds muscle memory through drills.

LOCATIONS FOR DRET:
  • MCB Camp Pendleton, C.A.

  • MCAGCC 29 Palms, C.A.

  • MCB Okinawa, Japan

  • MCB Hawaii

  • MCB Camp Lejeune, N.C.

  • MCB Quantico, V.A.
