Mahindra Aerostructures inks multi-year contract with Spain’s Aernnova to supply aircraft parts for Airbus and Embraer planes.
The deets: the contract is a $300 million multi-year deal where Aernnova Aerospace will manufacture metal sub-assemblies and components for a range of Airbus and Embraer aircraft. The project will support Aernnova’s facilities across Spain, the UK, Portugal, and Brazil.
This is Mahindra’s second major aerospace win in two months. In April, it secured a contract to manufacture the main fuselage for Airbus’s H130 helicopter.
Why it matters: Mahindra Aerostructures will produce the metal sub-assemblies and components at its facility in India, and supply them to Aernnova’s global operations in Spain, the UK, Portugal, and Brazil.
This aligns with India’s Make in India goals, while integrating Mahindra deeper into the global aerospace supply chain.
Aernnova, which works across Airbus’s A350, A320, A220 and even the Eurofighter and Boeing’s B787 platforms, brings credibility and this contract signals trust in India’s growing aerospace capability.
Zoom out: this partnership builds on a decade-long relationship between Mahindra and Aernnova, which began in 2013. As global OEMs diversify their supply chains, India’s aerospace ambitions are getting a lift.
