Lockheed Martin and Aerostar open S-70 Black Hawk maintenance, repair and overhaul service centre in Bacau, Eastern Romania. This facility will create and sustain high skilled jobs in local aerospace industry.
In advance of the facility’s launch, Aerostar employees travelled to Lockheed Martin’s Sikorsky training academy in the United States where they completed aircraft familiarisation and all necessary training.

Built at Lockheed Martin’s PZL Mielec facility in Poland, the highly sought after S-70 Black Hawk utility helicopter plays an important role in supporting both civil and defence needs in countries across Europe.
In partnership with Aerostar, Lockheed Martin is already looking at opportunities to integrate support for other products in Bacau, potentially including work in other sectors.
