Cirrus Real Time Processing Systems (Cirrus) has announced it has obtained an extension to its support services subcontract with Jet Aviation Australia for its Air Combat Officer Training System (ACOTS).
“The ACOTS System has been used successfully at AMTS since 2011 for providing training of RAAF Officer Aviation Mission Specialists, and additionally, drawing on recently introduced functionality, Airborne Electronic Analysts. I am very pleased to announce that Cirrus will continue to provide a range of engineering support services to AMTS’ suite of ACOTS installations under a recent contract extension with Jet Aviation Australia," said Cirrus’ Managing Director, Peter Freed.
Since 2011, the ACOTS training system has been in use at the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) Air Mission Training School (AMTS) for the provision of air mission training of RAAF aviators. It has been subcontracted to Jet Aviation Australia (formerly Hawker Pacific) since 2018. Cirrus has continually updated ACOTS in close collaboration with AMTS instructors to provide end to end simulation of the air mission battle-space and the operation of platform sensor, weapons, avionics and mission systems within a tactically immersive synthetic environment.
