What they offer: aerospace in-service support and missionization
IMP Aerospace & Defence is a Canadian vertically integrated aerospace and defence group providing aircraft fleet management, in-service support, maintenance and overhaul, missionization, engineering, electronics, aerostructures, naval and land services, and component manufacturing.
Last reviewed Aug 20, 2026
Decision snapshot
IMP combines Canadian military-aircraft in-service support, missionization, airworthiness engineering and aerospace manufacturing across a multi-site operating base. Public National Defence and ISED records tie the company to CH-149 Cormorant support and CP-140 Aurora obligations. A useful next conversation is to identify the fleet, approval authority and production capacity relevant to a specific sustainment or modification need.

aerospace in-service support and missionization
What it enables
IMP delivers fleet management and in-service support, military aircraft MRO, special-mission conversion and modernization, engineering and airworthiness work, avionics and electronics support, and structural and component manufacturing.
Prepare the conversation
Which IMP operating unit and approval authority would own the proposed aircraft modification or in-service-support scope?
Public sources establish broad DAO, MRO, electronics and manufacturing capabilities, but a buyer must route a specific platform and work package to the correct operating unit.
