Aviation Requirements

Aviation Requirements (AR) is an established Defence Consultancy providing specialist support to the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) and Defence Sector Industries. Established in 2003, AR’s early success was in winning the contract for the development of the System Requirements for the Army’s future Battlefield Helicopter. Since then, the company has grown into one of the MOD’s largest providers of Suitably Qualified & Experienced Personnel (SQEP) to support multiple Delivery Teams across the Air Domain. Specialists in niche areas, the company has developed its own technical capabilities as Independent Structural & Airworthiness Advisors (ISAA), providers of Integrity Advice and Technical Support.
