In a groundbreaking collaboration with AerCap, IAI successfully converted a Boeing 777-300ER, also known as the ‘Big Twin’, for the first time in history. This converted aircraft has already garnered significant interest with dozens of orders received, and it is on track to obtain certification from aviation authorities shortly. Industry analysts foresee that the converted Boeing 777 passenger-to-freight aircraft will rise to become one of the top freighters globally, given its notable advantages.
Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) took part in a significant ceremony with Sharp Technics K (STK) and Incheon International Airport Corporation to lay the cornerstone for a joint Boeing 777 passenger-to-freight conversion facility in Korea. This event saw the attendance of senior officials and representatives from all three companies. Overall, IAI’s Aviation Group plays a crucial role in the global aerospace industry, offering comprehensive solutions and support to a wide range of partners and clients across the aviation sector.
