The acquisition builds on Bombardier’s longstanding industrial relationship with MHICA, which has supported multiple projects including the Global 5500 and 6500 programs.

The deal will add MHICA’s manufacturing capabilities and about 750 employees to Bombardier, further strengthening its in-house aerostructures capabilities, resilience and autonomy, the company said.

“This agreement represents a key step in Bombardier’s long-term growth strategy, strengthening critical capabilities, enhancing operational resilience and supporting the company’s flexibility to meet growing customer demand,” said David Murray, Bombardier’s executive vice president of manufacturing and supply chain execution.

Hiroyuki Koguchi, executive vice president and head of commercial aviation systems at MHI, said the agreement recognizes the contributions of local employees and ensures a strong future for the workforce, whose skills and expertise have been central to the company’s success.

The acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, Bombardier said.
