Contract Manufacturing – From Prototype to Series
01
Prototype
Whether your prototype is already certifiable or still at proof-of-concept level – we build it. Our flexible manufacturing approach helps you validate your design early, gain practical insights, and prepare for a smooth transition to certification and series production.
At AEE, we transform your avionics designs into certifiable products – from first prototypes to full-scale series production. With our Part 21G approval and EN9100:2018 quality management, we ensure compliance, reliability, and traceability at every step.
02
Series Production
Once your design is proven, we scale it into production. As a Part 21G approved organization with an EN9100:2018 quality management system, we deliver avionics hardware with full compliance, traceability, and process reliability – from small batches to series runs.
03
Support & Maintenance
Our responsibility doesn’t end with delivery. With Part 145 approval and EN9100:2018 quality management, we provide repair, spare parts, and maintenance services. This ensures your avionics remain reliable, compliant, and mission-ready throughout their lifecycle.

AEE extends and expands contract with Airbus Helicopters until 2036
The German avionics specialist AEE Aircraft Electronic Engineering GmbH will remain the supplier of TETRA radio systems for Airbus Helicopters in Germany for the next 10 years.
It will now also supply Airbus Helicopters in France. AEE Managing Director Phillipp Volz and Lukas Hamm-Riff, AEE accountable manager EASA Part 21G & Part 145, have now signed the corresponding contract for the extension and expansion of the cooperation until 2036.
AEE has been the sole supplier of radio systems for Airbus Helicopters in Germany for around 20 years: the radios are installed in a helicopter control unit, and the associated control panels are installed in the cockpit.
The radio systems supplied by AEE are used, for example, in helicopters for government agencies.
“This system, with Tetra radio as the standard for digital radio traffic, is simply stable and has been successfully approved in the helicopters,” said Hamm-Riff. “We are pleased that we can continue to serve the segment with one of our top-selling products. Our supplier relationship with Airbus Helicopters began with the radio systems. We are now also developing the IdFX mission computer and SNAF for secure military radio communications for the customer.”
