Cobham to support NATO EW training
Cobham has received a follow-on contract from NATO to deliver operational readiness training for up to five years, the company announced on 16 January.
Under the contract, Cobham will deliver electronic warfare and threat simulation training to NATO allied forces to prepare for complex and multi-layered front line threats.
Training will be delivered using Cobham’s owned and operated aircraft carrying a suite of either NATO-furnished equipment or Cobham’s electronic warfare podded training technology.
Darren Moncrieff, vice president of Cobham Special Mission, said: ‘Securing this follow-on contract, with a customer as prominent as NATO, demonstrates that we have a world leading, technically advanced operational training capability that is innovative yet affordable.
‘Our training solution is able to meet the current training requirements of a modern military fighting force, and can adapt to meet future threats and requirements. Cobham remains committed to providing NATO with world leading training and technology solutions.’
