Deployable Mission Operator System
Aviation services group 2Excel and simulation and training partner JD2E have announced plans to continue their successful partnership to pursue further contracts. The work builds on the duo’s track record of delivering live flying training to Royal Air Force Weapons System Operators (WSOps).
Combining 2Excel’s deep experience in live flying and aircraft operations and JD2E’s expertise in training and simulation, the training has had an exemplary safety record during four years, with graduates superbly trained and ready for the next challenge when they arrive on their Operational Conversion Units (OCU) on frontline aircraft.
All pilots and instructors are accredited by the RAF Central Flying School, and in addition to 2Excel’s civilian air safety assurances, JD2E has been assured by the RAF Air Safety team.
Roger Wyness, who heads 2Excel’s military training business, said: “Through this enduring partnership with JD2E, we offer high quality, value-for-money training, with a renowned agility to flex to all customer requirements. It’s no wonder the customer feedback has been so positive, with those graduating suitably equipped for the next stage of their training and eventually the front line, where they will play a key role in national defence and security.”
Jonathan Bramley, Managing Director of JD2E, said: “Our continued partnership with 2Excel reflects a shared commitment to delivering world-class ISR training that meets the evolving needs of defence.
By integrating JD2E’s advanced simulation capabilities with 2Excel’s operational flying expertise, we’re able to offer a truly immersive and effective training experience.
“The success of our joint programmes is evident in the calibre of graduates entering frontline service, and we’re proud to support the RAF in preparing mission-ready crews who contribute directly to national security.”
During this September’s DSEI event in London, JD2E is exhibiting on the 2Excel Group stand S3-165 with the Deployable Mission Operator System (DMOS), the flagship simulation and training platform purpose-built for real-world, multi-domain ISR.
The equipment supports high-fidelity training for mission crews – from classroom instruction to mission rehearsal – reducing the burden on airborne platforms while increasing readiness. Already used to train hundreds of aircrew, DMOS is fast becoming a trusted asset for ISR capability generation.
