Naval Air Systems Commendation |
| |
Each year the U.S. Naval Systems Command makes an award to one commercial vendor or team for outstanding contributions to Naval Aviation and specifically to the Naval Air Systems Command. The J52 engine team (Axiam, Pratt & Whitney & U.S. Navy) received this commendation in 2003 for our work that made a substantial impact on
readiness and effectiveness. Our assembly processes helped to significantly improve engine availability, performance and readiness for a critical mission. |
