HAECO, JAL, Toyota Tsusho and Sun Group to build $360M MRO facility at Vietnam’s Van Don International

Hong Kong-based HAECO will form a JV with Sun Group, Toyota Tsusho and Japan Airlines to develop a US$360 million aircraft maintenance facility at Van Don International Airport. The plant is targeted to be operational by late-2028, adding domestic MRO capacity to support Vietnam’s expanding airline base.

Briefing

What Hype is tracking

The JV directly addresses a stated MRO capacity gap in Vietnam, targeting late-2028 operations and a step-change in regional heavy maintenance capability.
It continues a broader APAC pattern of OEM-linked and airline-linked maintenance buildouts, including Collins Aerospace’s $63M Subang component MRO expansion and SIA Engineering/Safran’s LEAP engine MRO JV in Singapore.
The partners’ involvement—HAECO plus JAL and Japanese supply-chain players—signals deeper sustainment integration across the region, including JAL’s next-generation landing gear overhaul facility at Haneda.
