Negotiations have been completed for the Australian Defence Force’s (ADF) JP9711 Core Simulation Capability requirement and Lockheed Martin Australia, including partners Calytrix Technologies and NEC Australia, have now been placed under contract by the Australian government.
LMCO Australia was down-selected for the programme around 18 months ago at the expense of a Northrop Grumman and CAE team.
