The Royal Netherlands Air Force (RNLAF) and Fokker Services Group (FSG), an aerospace solutions provider, have renewed a Total Support Contract for Standard Parts & Expendables. Under this agreement, FSG will continue supporting the RNLAF by supplying standard parts and extended services for various aircraft and helicopters over the next five years.

Announced during the Farnborough International Airshow 2024 in the UK, the renewal ensures that FSG will cover over 20,000 part numbers for multiple platforms operated by the RNLAF, including AH-64 Apache, CH47 Chinook, NH90, AS532U2 Cougar, C-130 Hercules, PC-7 trainer, and MQ-9 Reaper. This support establishes FSG as the exclusive contact point for all RNLAF standard parts needs, including logistics services, forecasting, introducing approved alternative items, and consignment stock management. These services will be provided from FSG’s facilities in the Netherlands.

The original contract between RNLAF and FSG dates back to 2017. Since then, FSG has delivered more than 100,000 orders with an average on-time delivery performance of 98%. The renewal criteria included a commitment to a sustainable roadmap aligning with RNLAF’s sustainability goals.
