Korea Aerospace Industries Co., the country's sole aircraft manufacturer, said Friday it has received a 115.7 billion won (US$108 million) parts order from the United States.

Under the deal signed with Triumph Aerostructure LLC, KAI plans to supply wing and body parts for the B767 twin-engine jet from January 2019 to December 2025, the company said in a regulatory filing.

In the January-March period, KAI shifted to a net profit of 32 billion won from a net loss of 28 billion won a year earlier.

Operating profit nearly quadrupled to 40 billion won from 11 billion won during the same period. Sales rose to 641.18 billion won from 587.26 billion won. (yonhap)
