QinetiQ Group has been awarded the Aerial Training Services (ATS) Contract with the German Armed Forces Procurement Office for the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr), Air Force, Army, Navy, and Special Forces.

The 10-year contract is worth €284 million with an option for an additional two-year extension. It represents the largest and longest contract award for QinetiQ’s Global Threat Representation business, providing long-term visibility and enabling future growth for our German operations.

For more than 30 years, aerial training and related services have been an essential part of the German Armed Forces’ operations. Under the ATS contract, QinetiQ will provide a comprehensive range of tailored services including Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC ) training, Red Air training, close air support, maritime air operations, ground control intercept training, air traffic control training and target towing for ground based air defence systems. These mission-critical training services will be delivered by the newly enhanced QinetiQ fleet of eleven PC-9 and four PC-12 aircraft.

“The contract will form a crucial part of our Global Threat Representation offering across all domains,” said Steve Wadey, Group Chief Executive Officer of QinetiQ. “We are very proud of our highly skilled employees who will deliver thousands of flight hours of training per year for our customer.”
