Science and Engineering Services LLC has opened its new 111,0000-square-foot facility at Huntsville International Airport.
Founded in 1988, SES provides system development, maintenance, modification, integration, training and contractor logistics support of rotary and fixed wing aircraft for the U.S. government and foreign military partners.
“SES is a Huntsville success story,” said Huntsville Mayor Tommy Battle. “We’ve watched the firm rise from a small manufacturing company over on Pulaski Pike to becoming a key supporter of PEO Aviation at Redstone and as an international leader in support of rotary and fixed wing aviation.”
The newly constructed hangar, built by Fite Building Co., will allow the company to add fixed-wing aircraft operations to Huntsville, according to SES CEO Ralph Pallotta.
“This location at Huntsville International Airport is perfect for us and provides enhanced security, and this building is equipped with state-of-the-art fire protection, heating and cooling. These are essential to protecting assets such as expensive, sophisticated, complicated aircraft for us taxpayers as well as the government,” said Pallotta.
SES has a long history with the U.S. Army providing equipment training and modification of rotary craft. For Boeing, the company receives all AH-64D aircraft from U.S. and foreign military sales (FMS) partners for remanufactured AH-64E production.
SES LLC’s operational locations encompass more than 1.4 million square feet of integration facilities with more than 100 aircraft in the company’s custody daily. It employs approximately 800 people.
