CASA (aircraft manufacturer)

Industrials

Construcciones Aeronáuticas SA (CASA) was a Spanish aircraft manufacturer that was founded in 1923 and began manufacturing aircraft the following year. In 1999 it became a subsidiary of the EADS (European Aeronautic Defence and Space Company) under the name EADS CASA, and in 2009 it was absorbed into Airbus Military. CASA designed and produced military transport aircraft such as the CASA C-212 Aviocar, the CASA CN-235, the CASA C-295 and the CASA C-101 trainer and ground attack aircraft, becoming one of Spain's most important aerospace manufacturers before its full integration into the Airbus group.
