MT&S is the sole awardee under the programme which has a ceiling value of up to $972m (£720m) over five years, and is expected to generate revenue of around $60m (£45m) from task orders during 2026.

Under the Air Force Modelling and Simulation Support Services (AFMS3) programme, mission critical training systems and services at over 20 locations for the US Air Force will be delivered ensuring secure, efficient and advanced modelling and simulation capabilities. The programme will support synthetic training exercises, improve warfighter skills and enhance operational readiness.

This significant award in the defence sector follows the acquisition of MT&S and demonstrates Serco’s strong position in the virtually enabled training and simulation support market.

“This contract award reflects our growing capabilities in mission simulation, operational training and Live, Virtual, Constructive technologies, which are key areas of strength and opportunity for Serco both in the US and internationally. It builds upon our momentum in defence, where we have deep expertise, from supporting personnel readiness to procurement, design & engineering, to deploying technology and ensuring well-maintained, modern infrastructure and assets for militaries around the world.”
