What AllClear does

AllClear Aerospace & Defense is a privately held U.S. military aerospace aftermarket services company founded in 1990 and headquartered in Miramar, Florida, with operational facilities across Camarillo, CA; Macon, GA; Piedmont, SC; and South San Francisco, CA. The company operates a vertically integrated four-segment business — Distribution, Repair Services (ACRS, an FAA 14 CFR Part-145 and EASA-approved repair station), Engineered Products (OEM-licensed custom manufacturing through subsidiaries), and Logistics Solutions (including offset program support) — serving the U.S. military across all branches and allied foreign military operators across more than 60 countries. AllClear holds authorized distribution and service-center relationships with tier-1 OEMs including Honeywell, Collins Aerospace, AMETEK, CEF Industries, Cleveland Wheel & Brake (exclusive), Lockheed Martin, Parker Aerospace, Northrop Grumman, and Boeing.

The company supports 25+ military aircraft platforms spanning fighter (F-15, F-16, F-18, F-5/T-38), transport/patrol (C-130/L-100, P-3, 707 derivatives), and rotary-wing (AH-64, CH-47, UH-60, T-50) aircraft, with deep specialization in C-130 Hercules sustainment including proprietary life-extension products (DFQMS, E2H ECS, SHORT-POD APU), a rotable exchange pool, and Lockheed Martin C-130 Certified Parts Licensee status held by two subsidiaries. The five wholly-owned subsidiaries (Airborne Technologies, DAC International, NASAM, TAVCO, Williams Aerospace & Manufacturing) provide complementary capabilities in structural airframe components, cockpit avionics distribution, space electronics, specialty pneumatics, and aftermarket manufacturing. The company operates under AS9100D, AS9110C, AS9120B, and ISO 9001:2015 quality systems, holds ITAR/EAR registrations, and runs a global MRO alliance network.

AllClear's revenue is generated through hardware sales (aftermarket parts distribution via OEM-authorized stocking agreements), professional services (MRO repair fees and managed repair), one-time license/manufacturing sales (custom engineered products under OEM licensing), and managed services (logistics contracts, offset program support, total logistics support). The go-to-market is enterprise B2B, focused on long-term fixed-price agreements, predictive stocking solutions, and direct procurement relationships with defense agencies, with revenue supported by an installed base of aging allied military fleets requiring sustained parts and modernization support.
