MHI, KHI and FHI produce components for Boeing commercial models and manage licensed production of Boeing defense products. These companies designed and developed 35 percent of the 787 Dreamliner airframe structure, including the main wing box — the first time that the design and build of such a critical part was entrusted outside the company. Together, they also supply 16 percent and 21 percent of the 767 and 777 airframes, respectively, and have contracted with Boeing to provide 21 percent of the super-efficient 777X.
