TAJĘCINA, Poland — Collins Aerospace, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, has announced a major expansion of its Tajęcina facility to increase production of landing gear systems for both commercial and defence aircraft.
The 4,000 square-metre extension will strengthen RTX’s operational capabilities in Poland, where the company employs more than 9,100 people — its largest workforce outside of the United States.
“This expansion builds on our proven track record of delivering high-performance landing gear systems that our commercial and defence customers rely on every day,” said Matt Maurer, vice president of Landing Systems at Collins Aerospace. “By increasing our manufacturing capacity in Poland, we’re ensuring we can meet growing demand worldwide for our products.”
Collins’ landing gear systems, including the main, nose and wing gear assemblies, are manufactured from high-strength metals designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions. Integrated with steering, braking and control systems, the equipment is engineered to enhance performance while reducing maintenance requirements.
RTX has maintained a presence in Poland for more than 45 years and today operates eight major engineering, manufacturing, maintenance and research facilities across the country. The Tajęcina site first opened in 2012, with the current expansion project commencing in November 2024. Completion is scheduled for February 2026.
