Tata Technologies
today said it has won a multi-year engineering services contract from Italian
aircraft maker Piaggio Aero Industries.
Tata Technologies
will deliver a complete structural design and analysis solution for the
aviation major’s new Multirole Patrol Aircraft (MPA) and its first test flight
will be conducted next year, company’s President Global Services and COO
Asia-Pacific, Samir Yajnik said here.
Tata HAL
Technologies Ltd, a joint venture between Tata Technologies and HAL, will
deliver on the prestigious engagement, Yajnik said on the sidelines of Aero
India 2013.
“This is one of the
first of its kind engineering services engagement in the private aerospace
sector in India,” he said.
Tata HAL
Technologies will deliver a complete optimised structural design, engineering,
manufacturing, and certification documents for the aircraft fuselage inclusive
of the vertical fin in two separate phases, Yajnik said.
Piaggio Aero’s
Multirole Patrol Aircraft (MPA) is the evolution of the company’s P180 Avanti
II multi-utility aircraft, newly designed to make it uniquely capable of
surveillance, law enforcement and security missions, he said.
The MPA’s main
features include an enhanced airframe, increased maximum take-off weight,
additional fuel tanks and a new aerodynamic configuration and a reinforced wing
providing an increased surface and higher aspect ratio, Yajnik said.
Piaggio Aero
Industries General Manager, Eligio Trombetta said with the MPA, his company was
looking at meeting the market need for a robust technological solution for
land, coastal, maritime and offshore security.
“We are confident
that Tata Technologies’ highly skilled and talented resource pool will help us
rapidly scale towards meeting our ambitious program targets,” he said.
Engineering the new
MPA aircraft requires the ability to meet stringent weight targets in an
aggressive timeline for design modifications, he said.
