In addition to MRAS’ design, development and manufacturing capabilities, the company provides technical support, spares and other services for its products. This includes the company’s authorization as an FAA/EASA Part 145 Repair Station for the maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) of nacelle systems on CFM International CFM56-7B and International Aero Engines V2500 engines, which power two widely-used single-aisle category jetliners: Boeing’s 737NG and the Airbus A320 family, respectively.
In 2019, MRAS was acquired by ST Engineering North America, the U.S. affiliate of Singapore-based ST Engineering – becoming a part of its global network of aerospace facilities and offices. With the ownership change, the company was renamed Middle River Aerostructure Systems.
