Magnaghi Aeronautica Group ( MA Group) has won a contract to develop, manufacture and qualify nose and main landing gears structures for the Lilium Jet.

The agreement with Lilium marks a significant evolution in MA Group’s global landing gear solutions within the regional electric air mobility market.

The company, which has its headquarters in Italy and offices in countries such as the U.S., Brazil, U.K, and Turkey, is a leading manufacturer of landing gears and actuation components. It will tailor the landing gear system for the Lilium Jet’s unique design and will contribute to achieving the take-off and landing comfort performances of the emission-free aircraft.

“We are very honoured and proud to count Lilium among our customers. We share Lilium’s vision of the huge potential of the Urban Air Mobility segment, which will bring a new age of commercial transport,” said Giorgio Iannotti, MA Group SVP Business and Product Development. “Our effort consists in continuously offering our capabilities, investments, heritage and expertise, and constantly developing our skills by anticipating market demands and needs and by working closely with our customers in order to integrate our solutions into their programs.”

“We provide technologies, products and services needed for tomorrow’s aerospace markets by developing innovative solutions,” said Pietro Persico, Engineering, Research and Test Director. “A significant number of our engineers are committed to Research & Development, exploring new paths towards innovation day after day.”

Magnaghi Aeronautica, the operating parent company of the Group, designs, and manufactures hydraulic and electro-mechanical landing and actuation systems for fixed and rotary-wing aircraft, civil aviation, and defense. While Salver specializes in the development and production of aerospace structures made of advanced high-performance composite materials, Metal Sud focuses on surface treatments and special processes for the protection of aeronautical components.
