Wood Dale, Illinois – AAR CORP. (NYSE: AIR), a leading provider of aviation services for commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, has expanded its Supplier Capabilities Contract with Defence Logistics Agency (DLA) Aviation to include the distribution of select Unison parts.
This multi-year agreement enhances AAR’s exclusive distribution capabilities for sole-source spare parts manufactured by Unison, supporting a wide range of military aircraft platforms. The company will provide integrated supply chain management, ensuring improved material availability and reducing supply volatility for the DLA.
