J.F. Taylor's history began supporting the Naval Air Test Center by providing engineering and test support of Identification systems in Naval and Marine Corp aircraft.
J.F. Taylor developed their first flight-worthy data collection instrumentation, as well as a data reduction and analysis capability to support flight and laboratory testing.
J.F. Taylor designed, fabricated, and delivered a high-fidelity simulator/stimulator for the Patrol Avionics Test Laboratory, simulating the functionality of the P-3C sensor stations and the environment with which it operates.
J.F. Taylor began its support of the Manned Flight Simulator, Simulation Division with the development and operation of high-fidelity simulations of multiple Navy and Marine Corp aircraft, providing avionics modeling, hardware-in-the-loop engineering, electrical and mechanical design, and fabrication.
J.F. Taylor Trainer Products Group begins with the design, fabrication, and delivery of two AH-1W High Fidelity Flight Trainer to Taiwan. Our investments included the establishment of high-bay manufacturing space with mechanical and electrical fabrication tooling.
J.F. Taylor turned their design and fabrication skills to support the fabrication of aircraft flight-worthy cable harnesses and electro-mechanical aircraft modification kits, with the delivery of CNS/ATM kits for the E-2C, C-2, and CH/MH-53.
J.F. Taylor began its support of unmanned and maritime systems with the engineering design support and fabrication of FireScout and UCAS control stations.
Over the past 35 years, we have grown from a one-person operation to a company with over 500 employees and $150 million in annual revenues.
On September 19, 2022, JF Taylor opened its Cecil's Mill Facility in Great Mills, MD which includes 60,000 square feet of high-bay, fabrication, and laboratory space. This one-of-a-kind facility in the NAS Patuxent River area supports over 100 electrical and mechanical fabricators and support personnel and over 50 engineers, software developers, and management personnel.
