Abstract

The article focuses the increasing demand for the P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol reconnaissance aircraft (MPRA) among international defense customers. It is noted that the Poseidon is not an inexpensive aircraft and the MPRA built by aerospace firm Boeing is dominating a limited market and only Japan has offered a modern competitor to the P-8. It mentions that Boeing had delivered eight P-8As to the Royal Australian Air Force and 81 to the U.S. Navy.
