P8 Lossiemouth

The Boeing P-8 Poseidon is a military aircraft developed by Boeing Defence based on a modified design of the 737-800ERX. The platform was initially developed for the US Navy, first flown in 2009 and introduced into service in 2013.

In 2019, the UK Ministry of Defence received the first of a fleet of nine P-8A Poseidon Maritime Patrol Aircraft (MPA). The ninth was delivered in January 2022. The Aircraft is fitted with equipment to tackle a diverse range of missions, including submarine hunting, performing reconnaissance missions and supporting search & rescue operations.

Boeing Defence UK (BDUK) has been supporting the UK fleet as the exclusive Maintenance Repair Organisation (MRO) since the first UK P8 aircraft landed in the UK in 2019 and entered service.
