We provide expert evidence based advice and consultancy to our customers, rooted in research, experimentation, and trials. We do this across the land, maritime, and air domains in Defence and Security.
We are a national, and in some cases international, centre of excellence and expertise in areas key for our customers, including aircrew systems research, and submarine escape and diving.
