Aircraft, Upgrades and Completions

Aircraft upgrades and completions are configurations and modernization of the military aircraft aimed at improving its performance, safety, and its mission capacity. This involves upgrades of avionics, cockpit digitization, integration of mission system, structural, and cabin or panel refurbishment. These are commonly applied in fleet modernization programs, special mission conversions including surveillance and reconnaissance and life-extension programs of older aircraft. They can allow defense organizations to enhance operational readiness, fulfill changing regulatory requirements, and reduce long-term expenditures, maximizing the utility of the current air assets.
