🎉For 75 of America’s 250 years, Martin-Baker ejection seats have helped protect the men and women serving in the United States Armed Forces through saving 3,632 U.S. aircrew lives to date.
That story began on 21 December 1951, when the first U.S. aircrew member ejected from a Canberra using a Martin-Baker Mk1C seat. Most recently, on 13 June 2026, a U.S. Marine Corps aviator ejected from an F/A-18 Hornet using a US14A NACES ejection seat.
Through Martin-Baker America, the company maintains a dedicated presence in the United States, working closely with U.S. customers and supporting the ejection seats relied upon by American aircrew.
As the United States marks 250 years of independence, Martin-Baker is proud to have supported its aircrew for the last 75 years 🔻
