Early Engagement - Next Generation Operational Training (NGOT)

The UK's Air Operational Training Infrastructure and associated enablers are in need of review to meet the capability demands of all aircraft types, particularly Lightning and Typhoon, while replicating an increasingly potent threat. NGOT will create a Joint 'Operational Training Ecosystem' containing complementary capabilities within two initially separate pillars of Live and Synthetic activity. Synthetic aspects of operational training capability are currently in the delivery phase, with Live in development. NGOT will deliver new solutions to fill identified capability gaps, build an Operational Training ecosystem fit for the Next Generation Air Force using innovative technologies and agile delivery methods to ensure cost-effective, cutting-edge capabilities.
