Top Aces Corp.

Top Aces Corp., a foreign-owned for-profit corporation headquartered in Mesa, Arizona, provides adversary air support, close air support training, and structured F-16 pilot training curricula to the U.S. Air Force as a prime contractor on full-and-open, non-set-aside delivery orders and IDCs. The vendor operates through a parent holding structure with a subsidiary, Blue Air Training Corp., designated as a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Business.

Top Aces' customer concentration is extraordinarily narrow: the Department of the Air Force Air Combat Command accounts for 6 awards and $12.61 billion in combined potential value, representing 99.7% of the vendor's active federal footprint. The remaining exposure splits among the Air Education and Training Command (3 awards, $33.2 million potential value for F-16 pilot training and related curricula), with minor engagement across the Navy Strategic Systems Programs, Air Force Materiel Command, and Air Force Test Center. The concentration between volume and dollars is absolute — Air Combat Command dominates both rankings.

Top Aces holds position on two parent vehicles: the Combat Air Force Contracted Air Support Operations IDIQ, which has generated four task orders with $511.7 million in combined potential value, and the Indefinite Delivery Contract FA300222D0005, which has generated two task orders of undisclosed value. A third vehicle, the Adversary Air and Close Air Support Training Services IDC awarded September 10, 2024, represents a $5.7 billion ceiling and carries a $1 thousand task order. The $5.7 billion IDC is the dominant vehicle by magnitude and reflects Air Combat Command's structured procurement posture for adversary air support services through 2029.

Representative prime work includes a $486.2 million firm fixed price delivery order issued September 30, 2022, under the Combat Air Force Contracted Air Support Operations IDIQ for adversary air support services to Eglin Air Force Base with CONUS-wide temporary duty assignments, running through February 6, 2028; a $33.19 million definitive contract awarded February 26, 2026, by Air Education and Training Command for implementation of a structured F-16 pilot training syllabus covering ground academics, simulator training, and flight training to be delivered at Rio Cuarto Air Base, Argentina, through June 26, 2029; and a $21.45 million delivery order from October 2022 for adversary air support at Eglin and Luke Air Force Bases. Performance locations span Randolph Air Force Base and Rio Cuarto Air Base, Argentina (F-16 training), Eglin and Luke Air Force Bases (adversary air), and Hampton, Virginia (operations oversight).

Activity shows episodic prime awards, with two in 2019, four in 2022, two in 2024, two in 2025, and one in 2026. One award ($486.2 million) reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months and faces recompete risk in that window. Across the SCI-reportable federal service-contract dataset (which covers only contracts above the $150,000 threshold and excludes goods and classified work), Top Aces reports zero invoiced revenue in FY2022 through FY2024, with 1.5 FTEs reflected in FY2024 — the SCI figures do not represent the vendor's actual contract deliveries or workforce scale and reflect only a narrow slice of service-contract overhead or administrative staffing captured in SCI reporting.

Top Aces operates as a prime contractor on 77% of its recent awards (10 of 13 awards) and subcontracts on 23% (3 awards). In its subcontractor role, the vendor delivers F-16 international aircraft maintenance and pilot differences training support to Valiant Global Defense Services on two awards (November 2022 for training needs assessment in Zvolen, Slovakia, and April 2025 for pilot-differences training phase labor in Argentina through December 2025) and technical program support to The Charles Stark Draper Laboratory on a single award (October 2025). The vendor's capability footprint centers on air combat training delivery, adversary air operations, and international F-16 pilot training; the award portfolio carries no goods manufacturing, product development, or R&D components beyond combat training support operations.
