Australian Aerospace Limited

Australian Aerospace Limited is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Eurocopter which, in turn, is part of the European Aeronautic Defence & Space Group (EADS).

Created in 2003 through the merger of Eurocopter International Pacific Limited and Australian Aerospace Pty Ltd, the company has evolved into a major defence supplier to the Australian Government.

With more than 1000 staff in Australia and New Zealand and access to the financial strength and expertise of Eurocopter and the EADS Group, the company is well-positioned to manufacture and support military and civil helicopters in the Australia-Pacific region.

At its production facility on Brisbane Airport, Australian Aerospace currently is assembling and delivering 22 Tiger ARH armed reconnaissance helicopters to the Australian Army and 46 MRH90 multi-role helicopters to the Army and Navy.

n addition to its helicopter capabilities, Australian Aerospace has a long history of support to the Australian Defence Force (ADF).

This includes support for the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF) AP-3C Orion reconnaissance aircraft and, until recently, the now retired Caribou transport fleet.

In 2009, Australian Aerospace commenced a through-life-support role for C-130J Hercules transports. The company is also involved in supporting the RAAF's new Airbus A330-based Multi-Role Tanker-Transport (MRTT) aircraft and F/A18 (Classic) Hornet fighters.
