RTX signed three deals with the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) on Tuesday morning at the Singapore Airshow, building on a 55-year relationship between the two entities and marking some $139 million in additional investment in the country by RTX’s Collins and Pratt & Whitney divisions. The memoranda of understanding build on an agreement inked in July at the Paris Air Show and underscore RTX’s confidence in Singapore as a strategic hub for aerospace manufacturing, MRO, and engineering capabilities.

Under the latest arrangement, Collins will introduce new MRO capabilities in Singapore to reduce turnaround times for electrical power systems and environmental and airframe control systems. Specifically, this expansion includes MRO services for Boeing 777X integrated drive generators, and—for the 787—controllers for engine starters, cabin air compressors, and auxiliary power units, as well as cooling systems capabilities covering pumps and controllers. All of these new capabilities are expected to be fully operational in 2030.
