Kelly Aviation Center, a leading provider of aircraft engine maintenance, repair, and overhaul for international commercial and military customers, officially changed its name to Lockheed Martin Commercial Engine Solutions, or LMCES, in an 8 April 2014 announcement. Since 1999, the site in San Antonio, Texas, was Lockheed Martin's only jet engine maintenance, repair, and overhaul, or MRO, facility. A second engine MRO facility was acquired in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in 2013 that expanded the company's customer base into additional international markets. LMCES serves as an engine maintenance, repair, overhaul and test facility for eleven different engines, including those that power the 737, 747, 767, A300, A320, DC-10, F-15, F-16, C-130, and regional jets such as the Bombardier CRJ.
