M3 Technology was founded as J&K Electronics Inc. in 1998 as a distributor of electronic components on Long Island. In 2004, the company was renamed M3 Technology, and established a new focus; the supply of parts and components to the aerospace industry.

This new aim has become the company's specialty, and has seen the company grow beyond the typical scope of a defense distributor. M3 Technology has now become The company, and now serves customers around the globe, in a vast array of roles. To this day, the company maintains its presence in the Electronics Industry.

Among the projects the company works on is the supply of parts and components to the MRAP program, logistical support of the New Iraqi Air force, and global supply services for the armed forces of Taiwan and Japan. In addition, M3 Technology is intimately involved with the defense industry of Turkey, and is a supplier of parts and supplies to many defense contractors in the country.

M3 Technology provides support services for platforms including:

• Bradley Fighting Vehicle
• Bell Huey
• Mil Mi-17
• F-35 Lightning II
• M1 Abrams
• B-52 Stratofortress
• Orion spacecraft^[1]

In June 2011, the company received certification to the ANSI-ESD S20.20 Standard from QMI-SAI Global.

The company is registered as both an Exporter and a broker of United States Munitions List items through the United States Department of State and The Department of Defense Trade Controls.
