About this report
Aerostar S.A., based in Bacău, Romania, traces its origins to a 1953 aircraft repair plant and has grown into one of the country’s premier aerospace and defense firms . Today the company combines aerostructure manufacturing with extensive maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) capabilities.
Its facilities service combat aircraft and helicopters – notably the F‑16 fighters and S‑70 Black Hawk helicopters operated by NATO allies – while also producing complex components such as aircraft landing gear, hydraulic actuators and assemblies for both commercial and military aircraft . This unique combination of production and sustainment makes Aerostar a key node in European defense supply chains.
