UBIQUITY FPV Training
The Ministry of Defence, a central government organisation responsible for national defence and the armed forces, is seeking information on suppliers able to provide the First Person Viewer (FPV) small Unmanned Aircraft System element of Project UBIQUITY. The requirement concerns affordable, scalable, non-energetic FPV training systems for Army training, experimentation and force development, together with associated ground control stations, batteries, spares, repair support, training and documentation. The estimated value is £3 million, although the tender details do not specify a contract duration or delivery schedule. Delivery is expected across the United Kingdom. As this is an expression of interest intended to assess market capability before any potential formal tender, the key qualification requirement is evidence that the supplier can deliver the complete FPV training-system capability and its associated support services at a scalable level.
