Top Aces, a provider of contracted adversary air (ADAIR) services, will deliver training utilising its fleet of A-4N Skyhawk aircraft equipped with Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) radar and upgraded Alpha Jets.
The company’s Advanced Aggressor Mission System (AAMS), which uses an open architecture design, enables these aircraft to incorporate advanced sensors and simulate the capabilities of modern adversary fighter jets.
Top Aces Europe vice president Thomas Beringer said: “This contract marks a significant milestone in our long-standing partnership with the Bundeswehr. We are honoured to continue supporting Germany’s operational readiness – an imperative in today’s complex global landscape – with world-class training solutions tailored to the evolving needs of its armed forces.”
The agreement builds on a decade of service between Top Aces and the Bundeswehr. Top Aces supplies operational training intended to reinforce readiness across all branches of the German military.
