Sansera Engineering Limited has signed a long-term contract worth Rs 1.6 billion (USD 18.8 million) with Airbus Defence and Space for the manufacture, supply, and support of Airborne Intensive Care Transport Modules (ICTMs) for Airbus’s light and medium transport aircraft programmes.

Announced on 3 June 2025, the contract marks the first time Airbus has selected an Indian supplier for producing the ICTM kits, which are used for advanced in-flight medical evacuation, capable of transporting patients in critical condition.

The deal highlights Sansera’s growing footprint in the global aerospace supply chain, built on decades of engineering expertise and quality-driven innovation. It also contributes to India’s ambition of self-reliance in critical defence and aerospace technologies, positioning the country as a key player in precision aerospace manufacturing.
