This is on the basis that: (a) NCC Group are the only supplier able to provide software that meets all the MoD\u2019s requirements, including its technical and airworthiness safety requirements. The ASCE application is registered on the Defence Application Register as an MOD approved application. To transfer to 3rd party software, software support and training would create significant and unacceptable risk to Air Safety across multiple Aircraft Platforms resulting in a loss of airworthiness and a substantial and unacceptable reduction in the operability of all the affected aircraft platforms.",
