Intracom Defense (IDE) announces a new contract award by BOEING for the production of electromechanical assemblies for V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft, as a result of an international tender.

With this award, IDE expands its successful cooperation with BOEING, by entering in the global supply chain of another unique aircraft, after Chinook and Awacs.

The V-22 Osprey is a joint service multirole combat aircraft utilizing tiltrotor technology to combine the vertical performance of a helicopter with the speed and range of a fixed-wing aircraft. With its rotors in vertical position, it can take off, land and hover like a helicopter. Once airborne, it can convert to a turboprop airplane capable of high-speed, high-altitude flight.
