Lockheed P-3 Aircraft Accessory Services
Introduced in 1962, the Lockheed P-3 Orion provided naval forces with a land-based maritime patrol capability combining long endurance, sophisticated sensors, and weapons systems for anti-submarine warfare, anti-surface warfare, and maritime surveillance. Derived from the Lockheed Electra airliner, the P-3's reliability and mission effectiveness sustained production for over three decades, with aircraft remaining in service with numerous navies despite replacement by more modern platforms like the P-8 Poseidon.
Four Star Accessory Overhaul provides comprehensive P-3 aircraft accessory services for military operators maintaining these maritime patrol aircraft. As a Lockheed Martin approved repair center, we're authorized to service P-3 accessories with factory backing and access to technical data. Our capabilities span hydraulic systems, pneumatic components, power generation units, electromechanical accessories, and fuel system components, with obsolescence management for this aging platform.
Our FAA and EASA certifications enable seamless service for P-3 operators worldwide, supporting military naval forces with the security protocols and specialized documentation that defense operations require. Our precision machining capabilities and experience with legacy systems ensure continued P-3 operations as OEM support diminishes for this out-of-production platform.
