Leidos Australia Recognised As MRO Business of the Year at the Australian Aviation Awards
Leidos Australia's Mission Equipment Service Centre in Cairns was named MRO Business of the Year at the 2026 Australian Aviation Awards. The facility is billed as the only Southern Hemisphere site of its kind for sovereign radar, electro-optical and avionics sustainment, serving Australian defence and border agencies plus international customers, and recently entered the US Navy's NAVSUP program. In 2025 the MESC reported a 15-day average repair turnaround versus an industry norm of about 90 days, with zero early field failures, though the release contains no financial metrics.
