Description

New Apache maintainer training facility

The project is located within a military airfield at Wattisham in Suffolk. The client is a private consortium who provide Apache Attack helicopter pilot training facilities from existing premises on the same airfield.

The new bespoke building was constructed to enable the centre to provide training services for the maintenance of Apache Aircraft Systems. The project was generated by the need to relocate similar services from their previous site in Arborfield to Wattisham as part of Ministry of Defence programming.

The new training centre encompasses  21,500 sq ft of floor space which includes a support workshop, storage and welfare facilities.
