U.S. Air Force Selects FSI Defense for Training Systems Acquisition IV Multiple Award Contract

Warfighters to benefit from FSI Defense’s training system contract for the next 10 years

FORT WORTH, TEXAS (June 27, 2023) – The U.S. Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC), Simulator Division, selected FSI Defense, a FlightSafety International company, as one of 37 companies awarded a position on a 10-year, $32.5 billion multiple-award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) Training Systems Acquisition IV (TSA IV) contract.

FSI Defense is one of 18 large companies and 19 small companies chosen for the IDIQ contract.

The TSA IV IDIQ encompasses complex aircrew simulations and training, maintenance, and system-specific training systems directly supporting warfighter training at operating locations worldwide, allowing the U.S. Air Force to maintain control of the air domain – now and into the future.
