US-Based Acron Aviation Opens New MRO Centre in Bengaluru

India : US-based Acron Aviation has announced the launch of a new MRO (Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul) facility in Bengaluru, marking a significant step in its expansion across the Asia-Pacific region. The centre is aimed at reducing repair turnaround times, improving localized support, and cutting dependence on overseas repair hubs.

The new facility will initially focus on repair and testing capabilities for the SRVIVR25, an essential onboard safety system. Over the next three years, the centre is expected to expand its capabilities to include flight recorders, TCAS (Traffic Collision Avoidance Systems), and advanced cockpit display systems.

To ensure compliance and global reliability, the Bengaluru centre is currently in the process of obtaining DGCA CAR-145 approval. Future certifications such as FAA, EASA, and CAAC are also being considered, which will allow the facility to cater to a wider range of international operators.

Strategically, the Bengaluru hub is envisioned as a regional centre for engineering, customer success, and field support. This move will help operators across the Asia-Pacific region save both time and cost, as they will no longer need to send faulty avionics and systems abroad for repairs. The facility is fully integrated into Acron Aviation’s global network, ensuring consistent quality standards and the safeguarding of intellectual property.

According to company officials, the centre reflects Acron Aviation’s long-term commitment to supporting India’s growing aviation ecosystem and its ambition to become a major MRO hub in Asia. By strengthening localized repair capabilities, the new centre will contribute to improved safety, operational efficiency, and enhanced service for airlines and operators in the region.
