Aeronefs Services

Aeronefs Services makes parts and assemblies for the aeronautics, space, naval and defence industries. It works from three sites in Gironde, around the Bordeaux Mérignac Aéroparc, in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region of France.

The company has three main activities. The first is the study, industrial set-up, manufacture and assembly of small and large parts in metal, plastic or composite. The second is technical help with the assembly, modification and repair of aeronautical sub-assemblies. The third is the design, development and manufacture of drones, along with the tests and trials needed to get flight certification.

In aeronautics, it designs, industrialises, builds and integrates metal and composite airframe parts and assemblies for civil and military markets. It works as a tier 1 and tier 2 supplier. Its machine park uses numerically controlled machining centres. They cut aluminium on 3, 4 and 5 axes for small parts, aluminium on 4 axes for medium parts up to 2.5 metres, and hard metals such as titanium and steel.

The company also does maintenance and repair in the aeronautical, naval and space fields. It is certified to EN 9100 for production and to EN 9110 for maintenance and repair, and it holds Part 145 approval. A certificate for ISO 9001 is also published.

Drones are a growing line of work. The company advertises a technician and remote pilot role on its LR2M drone, a new generation medium range, medium altitude type that is easy to deploy. It uses a drone test centre at Sainte-Hélène in Gironde, between Bordeaux and Lacanau, about 30 minutes from Bordeaux. The centre belongs to the GAD group, which is the parent company of Aeronefs Services.

The company took part in the 2026 UAV SHOW in Bordeaux on 7 and 8 October. It has also joined GIFAS, the group of French aerospace industries, as an active member.
