Patria held the inauguration ceremony for its new F-35 production facility at the Halli site in Jämsä, Finland. This production line will focus on the large-scale assembly of F-35 forward fuselages, supporting the global F-35 supply chain.
The new plant, scheduled for completion in autumn 2025, is a key component of Finland’s F-35 fighter programme industrial cooperation. The project strengthens Finland’s security of supply and delivers significant benefits to the national economy.
Once fully operational, the facility is expected to employ up to 150 personnel at Patria. Assembly work is slated to begin in the spring of 2026.
