The Hellenic Navy’s first upgraded P-3B Orion maritime patrol and reconnaissance aircraft has successfully completed its maiden test flight on September 1, 2025, marking a key milestone after prolonged delays. The flight validated the aircraft’s onboard systems, including its state-of-the-art glass cockpit and mission data interfaces, which will enhance the Hellenic Navy’s maritime surveillance and anti-submarine warfare capabilities. Lockheed Martin and Hellenic Aerospace Industry’s announcement is accompanied by my overview of the P-3’s service in Greece, along with a detailed account of the Mid-Life Upgrade (MLU) program.
