Spirit AeroSystems announced Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation as the customer for one of its previously awarded business jet contracts. Spirit's contract to design, produce, and integrate a flight-ready wing for the Gulfstream G650 Business Jet is worth in excess of $1 billion.
Spirit won the contract through a global competitive bid process. The company will utilize its internal capability and global supply base to design and manufacture components for the aircraft. Final assembly, testing and delivery will be done at its Tulsa, Okla., facility.
