This is the second contract that CAE received to supply an aeromedical training system to the Dobbins ARB.

It will deliver a C-130 Aeromedical Evacuation Training System in January 2016 under a previously received contract.

The company is also providing the KC-135 Aircrew Training System to the USAF, with the latter exercising the option for the sixth year of aircrew training services.

CAE said that it has won C$100m defence contracts, included as part of its second quarter order intake, to provide training services and simulation products for global military customers.
