Let’s just analyse your worries:

Logistics and Spares: Most companies in the industry have high tech kit miles from their headquarters and more miles from the OEMs. Getting bits to the right place on time is what they do already if they are to get paid.

Aircrew / training: most of them including chief pilots and trainers will TUPE from Company A to Company B or Company C if they want to stay in well-paid and rewarding jobs. At base level only the logo will change. The interesting challenge will be to re-attitude a minority of the ex-military people.

MOD working with 6 contractors: I hope not. The Navy and the RAF need to talk to the project manager who also talks to the two incumbent and the two future contractors and does what his title says.

Complex and demanding, sure, but the industry does contain a few professionals.
