The agreement with the Federal Office of Bundeswehr Equipment, Information Technology and In-Service Support (BAAINBw) consists of a System Support Contract and a Material Management Contract. Both contracts run for four years until December 2018.
The System Support Contract provides technical support services such as overhaul and maintenance as well as a technical field representative team at Wunstorf where the A400M fleet will be based.
Head of A400M Customer Services Stephan Miegel said: “We are putting in place a robust and modern support structure which will adopt advanced maintenance and logistical practices and increasingly build on Airbus Defence and Space's A400M in-service experience with France, Turkey and the UK to provide Germany with world-class in-service support.” Germany has ordered 53 A400Ms and the first will be delivered in the next few days.
