    Brief

    The Authority is developing the Next Generation Red Air programme, with delivery anticipated in 2031 or later. This major procurement will follow a structured timeline: market engagement in Q1 2027, release of a Procurement Specific Questionnaire (PSQ) in Q2 2028, and contract award in Q1 2030. Suppliers should monitor communications from the Next Generation Red Air team for further updates and clarifications as the timeline is refined. This represents a significant opportunity for organizations with relevant defence air capabilities to engage early in the market consultation phase.
