Missile Testing

The KING AEROSPACE Inc. managed E-9A (DHC-8) airborne missile testing platform is a perfect example of how small business can make a difference. Prior to KING AEROSPACE being awarded the E-9A (DHC-8) program contract, the sophisticated mission equipment was not fully operational as designed. KAI technicians re-engineered the systems, and today mission equipment vastly exceeds the original design specifications. The E-9A (DHC-8)  is the only airborne platform that can accommodate the current generation of missiles and new fighter aircraft. KING AEROSPACE Inc. excelled where others failed.
