CAE developed and integrated the training scenarios to meet Taiwan specific flight training mission requirements. CAE is the only source with the requisite design knowledge, technical data, installation protocols, performance and operational characteristics knowledge of the MGSs capable to meet the Taiwan P-3C requirements, and is therefore uniquely qualified to perform and meet all requirements.
