Additionally, Brek recently signed a six-year Long terms Agreement for all parts and assemblies we currently manufacture. The F-15 fighter jet received a potential of 180 jets which translates to a 5 to 10 years of future production. As for the F-18, the aircraft demand for the next three years appears to be strong.
The capacity of the facilities of Brek will increase, together with the plant of Gardena, California, from 180,000 square feet to 287,000 sf.
