FR Aviation was created in 1985, from the airfield division of FR Limited. It is the founding company within Cobham’s Flight Operations and Services Group, formed in 2000 as one of the three Groups within Cobham plc. Today the Group operates more than 150 aircraft around the world based in Europe, South East Asia and Australia. FR Aviation’s fleet of Dassault Falcon aircraft provides Air Defence Training (Electronic Warfare, Target Towing and Threat Simulation) for the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force and other NATO forces. A similar service is provided for the French Navy (through AVdef) and for Malaysia (through Falcon Special Air Services).

Innovation, experience, flexibility and an in-depth understanding of customer needs are the cornerstones of Cobham Aviation Services Divisions operations. These qualities, combined with extensive knowledge, advanced specialist equipment and a powerful value for money ethos, enable Cobham to deliver aerospace training and operational solutions that meet the most demanding standards of leading military and civil customers around the world. The Division has demonstrated its capabilities for more than 25 years through a continuous warfare training programme implemented via a partnering contract with the Royal Navy and the Royal Air Force.
