Contract award represents first delivery of
P5CTS for North East Asia, expanding interoperable, high-fidelity
training for South Korean, U.S. and coalition forces
Cubic Corporation (NYSE:CUB) today announced its Cubic Global
Defense (CGD) business division was awarded a contract to supply
the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF) with its P5 Combat Training
System (P5CTS). Under the contract, Cubic, along with principal
subcontractor, Leonardo DRS, will deliver P5CTS airborne subsystems
and associated ground subsystems to be integrated with ROKAF
aircraft and training infrastructure. The P5CTS is the only fourth-
and fifth-generation interoperable Air Combat Maneuvering
Instrumentation (ACMI) system flying in the world today. The P5CTS
provides high-fidelity, live mission training capabilities for
advanced weapons and tactics training.
“We are incredibly excited to deliver the P5CTS system to the
ROKAF. This system will enable interoperable instrumented air
combat training across the Korean peninsula and the entire fleet of
ROKAF combat aircraft well into the 2040s,” said Jonas Furukrona,
vice president and general manager of Air Training Solutions, Cubic
Global Defense. “This P5CTS system will also be integrated with
existing ROK Army training infrastructure and electronic warfare
ranges to deliver a true multi-domain exercise capability.”
Training for today’s advanced threats to air operations requires
adaptable and highly advanced training tools. P5CTS sets the
standard for joint, multi-service and coalition training, while
providing expanded training capabilities on a common platform with
U.S. and coalition forces, including all aircraft in the ROKAF
inventory.
This globally fielded system enhances real-time and post-mission
training by displaying the live-air picture, recording mission
data, adjudicating weapons engagements and relaying Time, Space and
Positioning Information (TSPI) between participating aircraft
during training sorties. Key components of the system include
secure, GPS-enabled, aircraft-mounted airborne instrumentation
“pods” plus ground stations, which help aircrew conduct, monitor
and control air combat training and post-flight debriefing.
