E-6B Aircrew Training System

Comprehensive E-6B training and simulation

CAE USA, following the acquisition of the former L3 Link Simulation and Training business, is now the prime contractor for the U.S. Navy’s E-6B Aircrew Training System (ATS) program. As the sole provider of Navy E-6B aircrew and mission training, CAE USA develops and maintains all E-6B flight and maintenance crew capabilities required to support the platform’s strategic communications and airborne command post mission.
