RFI009 maritime threat simulation by UAV

The UK Ministry of Defence is procuring maritime threat simulation capabilities using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) through this RFI, seeking vendor input for providing realistic threat scenarios in naval training exercises. The purpose is to enhance training support for the Royal Navy and Royal Air Force, simulating threats such as UAVs in maritime environments to improve operational readiness. This aligns with the UK's strategic defence needs amid increasing maritime threats, complementing related efforts like sonobuoy contracts for anti-submarine warfare and aggressor training services.
