RTX Corporation RTX, through its Collins Aerospace business, continues to boost its global aerospace support infrastructure to address rising demand from commercial aviation customers. On June 9, 2026, Collins Aerospace announced the expansion of its maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) facility at Subang Aerotech Park in Malaysia. The $63 million investment increases the site's footprint from nearly 46,000 square feet to 164,000 square feet, establishing Subang as a key regional center for advanced component support and technical services.
RTX's expansion underscores its strategy to strengthen its position in the rapidly growing Asia-Pacific aviation market. As airlines in the region continue expanding fleets and increasing flight activity, demand for MRO services and component support is expected to rise. The enhanced Malaysia facility will enable Collins Aerospace to serve a broader customer base while increasing regional service capacity.
The site will provide advanced MRO capabilities for key aircraft components, including air cycle machines, heat exchangers, valves and next-generation starters. The Subang facility will leverage advanced technologies such as digital tier boards, eAndon systems, autonomous mobile robots and real-time location systems to boost productivity, streamline operations and reduce turnaround times.
The investment builds on RTX's long-standing aerospace presence and broad portfolio of aircraft technologies. Through Collins Aerospace, the company supplies avionics, aerostructures, power systems, interiors, environmental control systems and numerous mission-critical aircraft components. Continued investment in global service infrastructure could help RTX strengthen customer relationships, enhance operational support capabilities and further expand its presence across international aviation markets.
