Derco, P&W Sign F-16 Engine Distribution Agreement

Derco, a subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Company, signed an agreement to be Pratt & Whitney’s exclusive third party distributor to support the F100-PW-220/229 engine system.

The Pratt & Whitney F100 engine powers the F-16 fighters.

Valued relationships with premier original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) allow Derco to maintain one of the largest and most diversified aircraft spares inventories in the world.

“We are excited to strengthen our global distribution network by partnering with Derco and working together to ensure the mission readiness of more than 2,000 F100-PW-220 and -229 engines that power aircrafts flown by 23 nations around the world,” said Kelly Young, Pratt & Whitney F100 Senior Director.
