The brief

To address the future challenges of operating in complex military environments, there is a need to continue research and development of aviation concepts and technologies as MOD looks forward to replacing a number of existing capabilities in the latter part of the 2030’s and beyond.

Dstl requires a Delivery Partner to collaborate in the development and maturation of concepts and technologies for future rotorcraft, and tactical aviation in Contested, Degraded and Operationally-limited (CDO) environments.

The expectation is that the Delivery Partner construct will consist of a suitable organisation to lead a group of companies in a consortium-based approach to benefit from a broad range of relevant expertise, concepts and technologies across the UK industry base.
