Aviation Systems Engineering Company (ASEC) Incorporated is excited to announce the award of an $89.9M PMA 290 contract, which will provide technical engineering and key products in support of the United States Navy maritime patrol programs. These programs include P-8A Poseidon Quick Reaction Capability (QRC) and the ground stations (TacMobile).
The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) PMA-290 manages the acquisition, development, support, and delivery of the United States Navy’s Maritime Patrol and Reconnaissance Aircraft (MPRA). The MPRA program office (PMA-290) is based at Naval Aira Station Patuxent River, MD, where Capt. Eric Gardner serves as the program manager. Capt. Gardner is responsible for total life-cycle management of the P-8A Poseidon, P-3C Orion, EP-3E Aries, Special Projects Aircraft, and International Programs to numerous foreign countries.
The United States Navy faces emerging threats and is in the process of developing new operational requirements to provide improved Minotaur Family of Services (FoS). These services will enhance Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance, and Tracking (ISR&T) capabilities for the Maritime Patrol.
The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) and Naval Air Systems Command, working in support of PMA-290, are tasked with technical engineering and fleet deliverable capabilities and products for MPRA and associated ground station.
