The Future Aviation Mission Training System (F-AMTS) will be utilised to train the RAAF’s mission aviators, including electronic warfare officers, maritime patrol and response officers, air battle managers, air traffic controllers, and other mission specialists. The F-AMTS, to be deployed at RAAF Base East Sale in Victoria, will feature a comprehensive and evolvable training solution, including ground-based and airborne training and a digitally-enabled integrated learning environment.

“Milskil is very pleased to join the CAE-led AUStringer team and is confident that the set of sovereign capabilities that CAE has brought together provides a unique combination that will meet and exceed the Australian Defence Force (ADF) needs for the future mission training,” says John Lonergan, Managing Director and Founder of Milskil.  “Milskil brings experience and knowledge of front-line Defence aviation schoolhouses with a focus on delivering effective operational outcomes for the end-user community.  This is something we have been doing in Defence for more than 20 years and we look forward to providing similar support to the Air Academy as part of the AUStringer team.”

As the prime contractor leading Team AUStringer, CAE leverages its global experience as a critical training and operational support provider, responsible for training military aviators and mariners for Australia and its allied partners; the Royal Australian Air Force, Australian Army, the Royal Australian Navy, the U.S. Navy, the U.S Air Force, the Royal Air Force, the Royal Navy, and the Royal Canadian Air Force. Following a C$1B investment over 5 years into next-generation training technology and capability, CAE is accelerating the delivery of mission training and air combat capability with a focus on digitally immersive, adaptive and platform-agnostic training technology and support solutions.
