Dornier Aircraft Service Center (DFW) within Military Air Systems at Manching has been commissioned to provide system support for the German Navy’s eight P-3C Orion CUP (Capabilities Upkeep Programme) maritime patrol aircraft. DFW will be responsible for the system support tasks such as maintenance, technical logistic support and development engineering support, as well as for the Type Inspection Office which acts as the connecting point between military certification and the Bundeswehr Technical Centre (WTD) 61, also in Manching. In addition, DFW is responsible for materiel management for the P-3C Orion fleet.
The P-3 Orion maritime patrol aircraft in service with the Spanish Navy are used for naval reconnaissance and anti-submarine and anti-ship operations.
EADS Military Air Systems in Spain provides know-how for scheduled depot inspections as well as all the necessary repairs. It also supports the planning and implementation of service life extension measures and re-painting of the aircraft.
