Steyr Arms has announced today that it has formed a strategic training partnership with Khyber Interactive Associates, a world-class emergency response training, research and consulting company. As part of this new venture, Khyber will begin training students while using Steyr’s AUG A3 tactical rifles and M-A1 duty pistols.
Founded in 1992, Khyber provides emergency response training, research and consulting and the company is recognized world-wide for delivering unparalleled tactical training services to law enforcement, military, security and private-sector clients. Led by world-renowned tactical-subject-matter expert Wes Doss, Khyber’s proven real-world training programs are designed to enhance the conditioning, mechanical skills and psychological performance of the warriors that they train.
“Working with Khyber presents a very exciting opportunity for Steyr,” said Scott O’Brien, CEO of Steyr Arms. “Wes and the rest of the Khyber team are top-notch trainers, and they are highly regarded for their training programs for military and law enforcement operators and private citizens. We feel that they can provide excellent exposure for our superior tactical firearm systems that are ideal for law-enforcement and military operations.”
Available for both individuals and teams, Khyber programs are offered at select training facilities and host agencies, worldwide. Khyber’s specialized services range from precision weapons and VIP security courses to defense tactics and K9 operations programs.
“We are extremely excited to team with Steyr Arms, in doing so, we become their primary training partner in the law enforcement and military community,” said Doss, Khyber founder and president. “This unique partnership between Khyber and Steyr is a great mechanism for delivering an outstanding product to all our students and clients in the law enforcement and military communities.
