The new system will allow for P5 TCTS on three Royal Australian Air Force aircraft that currently do not use the system, including: MK-127 Hawk, F/A-18A/B Classic Hornet and the F/A-18G Growler.
Cubic Corporation has been awarded a new contract valued at more than $20 million from the Royal Australian Air Force to provide the fifth generation Air Combat Maneuvering Instrumentation (ACMI)P5 Tactical Combat Training System (P5 TCTS).
“With this contract, Cubic’s P5 TCTS will equip all Air Combat Group aircraft with the latest Air Combat Training System,” Dave Schmitz, president of Cubic Defense Applications said.
“With our technology, we enable the Royal Australian Air Force to further enhance debriefs at large training exercises such as Pitch Black and Talisman Sabre that are vital to ensure combat readiness and mission success.”
The P5 TCTS is currently in use on the RAAF’s F/A-18F Super Hornet aircraft, and the addition of the new system will allow for P5 TCTS on three Royal Australian Air Force aircraft that currently do not use the system, including: MK-127 Hawk, F/A-18A/B Classic Hornet and the F/A-18G Growler.
