Prague, – In the frame of the on-going multipurpose helicopter tender of the Czech Ministry of Defence, Airbus Helicopters signed yesterday a Memorandum of Understanding with the LOM PRAHA s.p. for a future cooperation in the field of helicopter maintenance, repair and overhaul. The agreement is also covering national customisation, service & support, training and the potential to extend the activities to future export business.
The state-owned company LOM PRAHA s.p. is experienced in maintenance, training, repair, overhaul and modernisation of aircraft and helicopters, as well as training solutions for NATO. As an established service supplier to the Czech Ministry of Defence, the Company would strongly benefit from an industrial cooperation with Airbus Group, a global leader in aeronautics, space and related services.
