VDK Aviation carries the founding line of the Equis Group, which acquired VDK Aviation & Defense in 2014. The firm's engagements have spanned contingency aircraft leasing, defence logistics, OEM representation and large-programme capture across the United States, the Middle East and beyond.
Today, as a Florida company of the group, VDK Aviation combines that transactional heritage with newer disciplines: open-source intelligence tradecraft, the regulatory frontier of AI in aviation, and the in-house engineering behind the group's own multilingual training platforms.
The firm advises worldwide, and answers from the United States.
