Osprey has been successfully supporting the Battlespace Management Force Headquarters with a team of genuine Subject Matter Experts who have depth of specialist knowledge and experience across a military ATM and Air Defence background, to scrutinise the acceptance and commissioning of a wide range of systems, including surveillance systems (Primary and Secondary Surveillance Radar, Mode S and Wide Area Multilateration, along with their processing and display systems), communication systems (Ultra-High and Very High Frequency radios and Voice Communication and Control Systems) and navigation aids (such as Tactical Air Navigation).

The extension has been secured despite the many challenges of COVID and onsite attendance at acceptance and commissioning activities, building upon the customer relationship that has developed over the past three years.
