“This expansion builds on our proven track record of delivering high-performance landing gear systems that our commercial and defense customers rely on every day,” said Matt Maurer, vice president of Landing Systems at Collins Aerospace. “By increasing our manufacturing capacity in Poland, we’re ensuring we can meet growing demand worldwide for our products.”
Collins’ landing gear systems, which include the main, nose and wing landing gear assemblies, are made of high strength metals to withstand harsh environmental conditions. They are integrated with steering, braking and control systems, and are designed to improve performance and reduce maintenance requirements.
RTX has had a presence in Poland for over 45 years and currently operates eight major engineering, manufacturing, maintenance and research development facilities in-country.
Collins’ Tajęcina facility first opened in 2012. Expansion construction began in November 2024 and is scheduled to conclude in February 2026.
