Liebherr-Aerospace Toulouse SAS of France will supply the integrated air management system for Ukrainian manufacturer Anotov's new AN-132D aircraft, the Ukroboronprom subsidiary said this week.
The contract was signed at the ILA Berlin Airshow on Wednesday.

Liebherr-Aerospace will design, supply and service the system, which will include the bleed air system, cabin pressure control and anti-ice systems, for the first AN-132D aircraft demonstrator, the company said.
The contract will also cover delivery of four aircraft which will be used for flight tests.
The AN-132D will be the first prototype of the A-132 turboprop light transport aircraft, which is slated to replace the AN-32 and AN-26, the company said.
Liebherr-Aerospace also supplies cabin pressure control and air management systems for several other Antonov aircraft, including the AN-74, AN-140, AN-148, AN-158 and the AN-178 prototype.
