redesignated us navy

p-3 to np-3d

Platform Aerospace completely redesigned the interior of a VSX-1 P-3, removing several equipment racks and replacing them with floor and ceiling tracks for increased modularity through roll-on/roll-off equipment installation with accelerated flight clearance procedures.  We also modified the electrical power distribution to add a Research Load Center, keeping project equipment separate from aircraft power and adding a safety “kill switch”.
