EPI and Lockheed Martin Join Forces to Strengthen Collaboration on Aerospace and Defence Manufacturing

EPI, an EDGE Group entity, explores areas of collaboration with PZL Mielec, a Lockheed Martin company, to foster innovation and expand capabilities in aerospace and defence

Abu Dhabi, UAE: Following their Letter of Intent (LoI) signing at IDEX 2025, EPI, the cornerstone of precision engineering in the UAE’s aerospace, oil & gas, and defence industries, and a Lockheed Martin delegation from Abu Dhabi visited PZL Mielec, a major Polish aerospace facility owned by Sikorsky, a Lockheed Martin company. PZL Mielec, known as the largest Lockheed Martin production site outside the United States, is one of Poland’s most prominent aircraft manufacturers.

The visit centred around discussions on combining EPI’s advanced precision engineering capabilities, which include work on leading commercial platforms such as Airbus, Boeing, Dassault, and Leonardo, and PZL Mielec’s significant defence aerospace expertise. The two parties explored opportunities for subcontracting, outsourcing, knowledge sharing, and implementing advanced manufacturing techniques.
