Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI) will convert an additional three B767-300 passenger aircraft to cargo aircraft, with the potential for a fourth aircraft. This contract marks another major milestone for IAI's aircraft cargo conversions program and the broadening of business for IAI's Aviation Group.
Over the last decade, converted B767 have been the backbone of the cargo aircraft market. To maintain IAI's future dominance in this market and to offer new solutions, IAI's Aviation Group signed a contract with GECAS to design, develop, and certify the B777-300 passenger-to-cargo conversion.
IAI's Aviation Group was established in January 2019 by combining the company's commercial and military aircraft activities. IAI's Aviation Group is one of the world leaders in the design, development, and certification of passenger-to-cargo aircraft conversions.
