AAR CORP., a leading provider of aviation services to commercial and government operators, MROs, and OEMs, has signed multiple long-term distribution agreements with Ontic that expand the companies' existing defense and commercial partnerships and enhance service offerings for the U.S. government and worldwide commercial customers.

Under a second agreement, AAR will add part numbers for various platforms, including the C-130, H-60, and E-2D, to increase its Ontic offerings for direct sales to the U.S. government by more than 33%. Under a third agreement, AAR will expand on a current contract with Ontic to begin distributing a thrust vector actuation systems motor manufactured by Ontic.
