Avioniq signs framework agreement with Team Hypersonics (UK)

29 May 2024, Kista, Sweden: Avioniq is pleased to announce that it has been selected to join the UK Ministry of Defence’s Hypersonic Technologies & Capability Development Framework (HTCDF) agreement.

The £1 billion HTCDF effort, led by the MoD’s Team Hypersonics (UK), aims to rapidly develop advanced hypersonic missile capabilities for the UK over the next seven years.

Avioniq will submit technology for assessment for Lot 2 of the eight-lot framework, which covers Modelling and Simulation, and Mission Planning.

Avioniq’s advanced AqLab and AqModel modelling and simulation software capabilities allow users to quickly and accurately analyze, replicate and predict the behaviour and performance of systems and sub-systems of all missile types, including hypersonic. Models produced within the Avioniq ecosystem can be used by stakeholders across the missile modelling supply chain in runtime simulations for scenario simulation, large Monte Carlo simulations and black box solvers, and simulator- and live aircraft-based mission rehearsal and training activities.

“The Avioniq model simulation framework allows users to reduce the time needed to produce, analyze and work with accurate missile models by an order of magnitude, reducing the time to build them from months – even years – to hours or days,” Mikael Grev, Founder and CEO of Avioniq, said. “This allows users to greatly condense their missile model development timescales significantly, producing accurate models that can be used across the supply chain for a multitude of applications.

“We are very pleased to have been selected to compete for the opportunity to demonstrate the effect these capabilities can offer Team Hypersonics (UK) for this critical programme.”

Founded in 2015 by experienced Gripen pilots, computer engineers and doctors in sensor fusion and behavioural science, Avioniq is an innovator in software development for aircraft in the military aviation arena.
