ALT For the first time, the German Navy recently entrusted its new Boeing P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft to Lufthansa Technik Defense for scheduled maintenance. This milestone was celebrated this Monday in Hamburg at a ceremony attended by the First Mayor of the Free and Hanseatic City and the Commander of German Naval Aviation. The first checks of the state-of-the-art submarine hunters mark a turning point for Lufthansa Technik: for the first time, the company is performing work on potentially armed aircraft.
