Boeing has awarded Mumbai-based Mahindra Aerostructures a contract to manufacture inlet outer barrel components and sub-assemblies of the B737 aircraft, and supply them to its facilities in the U.S. An aircraft engine’s inlet duct moderates the flow of air before its entry into the compressor.
The production of the components and sub-assemblies will begin in 2023 at the company’s facility near Bangalore, and deliveries will ramp-up in synchronization with Boeing’s planned increase in B737 production.
Arvind Mehra, managing director & CEO of Mahindra Aerostructures, said, “Boeing demands the best, and this contract award is a testament to our delivery and quality performance which was sustained even during the pandemic.”
