GE and PT. Nusantara Turbin Dan Propulsi (NTP) signed an overhaul support agreement covering CT7 engines that power CN235 turboprop aircraft. This further expands the successful collaboration between the two companies on the CT7 program that dates back over 20 years. NTP is a subsidiary of PT. Dirgantara Indonesia (PTDI), formerly IPTN.
Under the agreement, NTP will provide overhaul services for in-service and future CN235 engines (CT7-5/CT7-7/CT7-9 models) at its Indonesia facility. GE Aviation will continue to manufacture, assemble, inspect and test CT7-9 engines for CN235 orders at its Lynn, MA, facility. The CN235 is currently built by both Airbus Military and PTDI.
