F-15EX aerostructures deal marks a first for India

A strategic tier one supplier to Boeing for over a decade, Dynamic Technologies has secured a deal to manufacture F-15EX Eagle II aerostructure assemblies at its Bengaluru factory.

Dynamatic Technologies has been awarded a contract to manufacture assemblies for Boeing's newest tactical fighter, the F-15EX Eagle II. This is the first time aerostructures for the latest and most advanced F-15EX Eagle II will have been made in India.

The contract has given a boost to the Aatmanirbhar program and strengthens US-India collaboration on aerospace and defense industrialisation. Dynamatic Technologies will supply the F- 15EX aerostructure assembly requirements from FY 2022, and will manufacture at its facility in Bengaluru, Karnataka.

Udayant Malhoutra, CEO and managing director, Dynamatic Technologies Limited says, "Dynamatic has been associated closely with Boeing as a strategic tier one supplier partner for over a decade. The award for manufacturing aerostructures for the F-15EX Eagle II to Dynamatic is a testimony of our partnership with Boeing."
