This initiative is classified under the Electronic Warfare Systems and Counter Measures industry category, with a budget of £2,000,000. The procurement process is in the Tender stage, and submissions must be received by 11th November 2019. The support contract will cover various threat systems and enablers used by RAF Spadeadam for tactical training, addressing both air defence and aircrew training requirements. The contract is expected to commence on 1st January 2020 and will run until 31st January 2028, delivering significant operational capabilities over this period. This tender presents opportunities for growth primarily for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the defence sector, particularly those specialising in electronic warfare systems and simulation technologies. Businesses with expertise in developing and supporting air defence training solutions will find this contract particularly suitable. Engaging in this procurement process could enhance market presence and foster collaborations with governmental bodies, further opening avenues for future contracts within the defence industry. ## Notice RAF Spadeadam fields a number of Threat Systems and Enablers that are used to develop aircrew tactics and countermeasures against representative Radio Frequency (RF), Ultra Violet (UV) and Infra-Red (IR) Surface to Air (SA) systems. These are a combination of Real, Emulated and Simulated systems that are used for air defence by countries around the world; they are invaluable in training aircrews and testing aircraft systems against the likely threats they may face in combat. As a part of the suite of threat systems, RAF Spadeadam has used the JETS system since 2000 for the tactical training of aircrews against a range of simulated Air Defence (AD) systems. There is a requirement for a support contract to cover the above. Further details details of the type of support required will be detailed later in this advert.
