A Siivix Oy platform
Zone of War
Zone of War is a UAV and battlefield simulation platform for universities, corporations, and government programs — built by Siivix Oy on top of a decade of IoT and UAV hardware-testing infrastructure. Every scenario runs on physics and sensor models calibrated against real UAV hardware — not assumptions.
Built for three audiences
Universities, corporations, and governments run Zone of War differently.
Universities & research institutions
Aerospace, robotics, and defense-studies programs use Zone of War for coursework, thesis research, and reproducible experiment design without needing physical UAV access for every trial.
Corporations & industry R&D
Aerospace and defense contractors use the platform to pre-validate concepts of operation and payload behavior before committing to expensive physical test campaigns.
Governments & defense programs
Training commands and procurement offices use Zone of War for scenario-based training and requirements validation, with deployment options that respect network and data boundaries.
Platform capabilities
What's actually inside the platform.
Hardware-anchored physics
Flight dynamics, sensor drift, and comms degradation models are calibrated against Siivix Oy hardware-in-the-loop test data, not generic simulation defaults.
Multi-unit battlefield scenarios
Compose scenarios with mixed UAV classes, ground assets, and environmental conditions, then run them at faster-than-real-time for training throughput.
Sensor & payload fidelity
EO/IR, RF, and telemetry payload behavior is modeled from measured hardware responses, so operators train against realistic sensor limitations.
Scenario scripting & after-action review
A scenario editor for instructors and researchers, plus structured after-action data export for debrief and academic analysis.
On-prem or hosted deployment
Deploy inside a government or institutional network boundary, or run hosted through Siivix Oy infrastructure — same platform, different perimeter.
Access & audit controls
Role-based access, per-scenario audit logs, and export controls designed around how universities, corporations, and government procurement actually work.
Why it's different
Simulation output is only as good as the data underneath it.
Most simulation software models UAV behavior from public datasheets and textbook aerodynamics. Zone of War is built differently: Siivix Oy operates hardware-in-the-loop UAV testing rigs as part of its core testing business, and the sensor-response curves, comms degradation profiles, and failure modes measured on those rigs feed directly into the simulation core.
That matters most at the edges — how a payload behaves under real vibration, how an RF link actually degrades with distance and interference, how a flight controller responds once true payload weight is attached. Those are the conditions that generic simulation tools approximate and Zone of War measures.
Common questions
Before you request a walkthrough.
Is Zone of War a game engine or a simulation platform?+
Zone of War is a simulation platform. Its models are built on hardware-in-the-loop test data from Siivix Oy rather than generic game-engine physics, which is the primary reason institutions license it for training and research rather than entertainment.
Can Zone of War be deployed on-premises for government or defense clients?+
Yes. Zone of War can run inside a customer-controlled network boundary for institutions with data residency, classification, or procurement requirements, in addition to a hosted deployment option.
How is Zone of War related to Siivix Oy?+
Zone of War is developed and operated by Siivix Oy, an IoT and UAV testing platform company. Zone of War is Siivix Oy's flagship simulation product, built directly on its hardware testing infrastructure.
