US-based aerospace manufacturing company Jeh Aerospace has signed a Long-Term Agreement (LTA) with Liebherr-Aerospace to manufacture and supply high-precision components for landing gear systems on high-rate commercial single-aisle aircraft programmes.

Under the agreement, Jeh Aerospace will manufacture and supply these components from its dedicated facility in Hyderabad, India, thus becoming part of Liebherr-Aerospace’s global industrial network.

The LTA was formalised during a visit by senior Liebherr-Aerospace leadership to Jeh Aerospace’s Hyderabad facility.

Martin Wandel, chief operating officer and managing director of Liebherr-Aerospace & Transportation SAS, said: “We collaborate with partners being capable of fulfilling stringent requirements for precision, quality, and delivery performance. We are pleased to enter into this agreement with Jeh Aerospace and look forward to collaborating with a supplier that has built strong manufacturing capabilities and a clear commitment to operational excellence.”

Vishal R. Sanghavi, co-founder and chief executive of Jeh Aerospace, said: “Landing gear is among the most safety-critical systems on any aircraft. Being trusted to manufacture for a programme of this calibre, by one of aerospace’s most respected Tier 1 manufacturers, is a milestone our team has earned through precision and process discipline. We are committed to performing every day, not just at contract signing.”
