The UK Ministry of Defence has begun negotiations with its preferred suppliers for the Air Support to Defence Operational Training (ASDOT) requirement, which will see a thorough refresh of the UK’s airborne adversary training capability. An Invitation to Negotiation (ITN) was issued last month to industry, with the MoD confirming to AIN that the program is moving into its negotiation phase.
