| Neptune operates two models of the P2V: the P2V-5 and the P2V-7. The Neptune P2V was designed as a maritime patrol and antisubmarine warfare aircraft. This dictated extreme endurance and range, as well as defensive and good short-field capabilities. Its design featured high-aspect ratio wings, a large fuel load, an internal weapons bay and powerful engines --a combination which enabled the Neptune to set a world distance record of 11,235 miles, by flying nonstop from Perth, Australia to Columbus, Ohio USA. This record stood unbeaten until Dick Rutan and Jeanne Yeager circled the globe in Voyager. |

We fight fire with ten Lockheed P2V aircraft rebuilt and fitted with a maximum fire retardant capacity of 2,700 gallons with six door retardant dispensing tanks. Our impeccably maintained aircraft allows our customers to have a useful firefighting tool while we transition into a modern platform for the future.
