About this vehicle
Air Combat Command established a $5.7 billion Master IDIQ on September 10, 2024, for adversary air and close air support training services, with ordering authority open until September 8, 2029. The vehicle is unrestricted; all 13 task orders awarded to date carry no set-aside designation.
The vehicle supplies realistic advanced adversary air threats and close air support (CCAS) capability to support pilot production, combat readiness training, and mission qualification. Recent orders include F-16 chase services, UK Royal Air Force JTAC training at Fort Smith Air National Guard Base, Arkansas, and Smoky Hill Air National Guard Range, Kansas, and pilot training at Holloman Air Force Base, New Mexico. Scope centers on adversary air opposition and tactical air support services delivered at domestic and international training locations.
Ordering momentum is moderating. Nine orders were awarded in 2024 (the award year) and four in 2025, a significant drop. Only $59.9 million of the combined $482.6 million potential value across all 13 orders has been obligated, representing 12% utilization. Task-order ceilings range widely: two mega-orders dominate by far—a $253.9 million order for adversary training at Holloman AFB and a $198.1 million capability-establishment order—while eight small placeholder orders carry $1 thousand ceilings each.
Competition remains highly concentrated. Draken International, LLC and Airborne Tactical Advantage Co LLC together hold $480 million of potential value (99.5% of the vehicle total), with Draken leading slightly by potential value ($253.9 million across 2 orders) and Airborne second ($226.1 million across 4 orders). Blue Air Training Corp holds a distant third with $2.6 million across 2 orders. The remaining five primes share negligible amounts.
Customer concentration is skewed toward Air Combat Command, which funds 11 orders worth $276.6 million in potential value. Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center funds only 2 orders but represents $205.9 million in potential value, reflecting the large capability-establishment and Holloman orders. The Navy's significant share suggests emerging demand for adversary training beyond organic Air Force capacity.
