Patria Group has taken possession of a newly constructed facility in Finland, dedicated to the assembly and maintenance of F-35 fighter jet engines.
The facility, situated in Linnavuori, Nokia, was developed by Defence Properties Finland. Its initial role will be to provide assembly space for F135 engines, with plans to transition to maintenance and overhaul services in the future.
This progression aligns with the anticipated arrival of Finland’s first F-35A fighters at the Lapland Air Wing base in Rovaniemi towards the end of next year.
