Pursuit Aerospace

Pursuit Aerospace targets manufacturing companies that produce flight-critical components for commercial and defense aircraft. The firm focuses on businesses with precision machining, forging, and fabrication capabilities that hold long-term supply agreements with major OEMs. Companies must demonstrate proprietary technical qualifications, including FAA production certifications and OEM supplier designations.

Pursuit Aerospace invests across both commercial aerospace and defense. Its portfolio companies supply components for commercial aircraft engines and airframes, as well as defense platforms. The dual-market exposure provides a natural hedge, as defense spending cycles and commercial travel demand often follow different macroeconomic rhythms.

The firm concentrates on investments in the United States, with an emphasis on the Eastern and Midwestern industrial corridors where a dense concentration of aerospace suppliers operates. Locations such as Connecticut, Ohio, and the broader New England region house many of the specialized forging and machining companies that fit Pursuit Aerospace's acquisition criteria.
