A decade after the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) took delivery of the last of 18 Lockheed CP-140 Aurora maritime patrol aircraft in 1982, the CAF took delivery of three CP-140A Arcturus aircraft in 1992 (without sophisticated ASW systems) primarily for pilot training and surface patrol missions . Aircraft 140119 was completed by IMP Group at Halifax Airport and delivered to the CAF in December 1992. It was retired to ground instruction use sometime prior to 2005 and transferred to the museum in 2016. The two other CP-140As were retired to AMARG Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ in 2010.
