Deutsche Aircraft, a German manufacturer of regional aircraft, opened a new office yesterday, July 8, in the historic Römischer Hof on Unter den Linden in Berlin. With this move, the company intends to expand its presence in Germany and solidify its role as a leading original equipment manufacturer (OEM) in the local aviation sector. The Berlin office will serve as a central point of contact for strategic partnerships, political cooperation, and dialogue with decision-makers.
The opening of the office in Germany's political center is intended to enable Deutsche Aircraft to actively shape the country's aviation strategy. Nico Neumann, CEO of Deutsche Aircraft, emphasized that the company's work extends beyond the civilian use of the D328eco. He pointed to the development of the D328MR (Multi-Role) variant, which is intended to provide solutions for military needs, such as reconnaissance capabilities and air ambulance. The D328MR is designed specifically for ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) missions, enabling the collection and analysis of data in challenging environments and thus supporting security-relevant decisions.
Deutsche Aircraft's new Berlin presence will enable closer collaboration with federal policymakers and institutions. This should facilitate the pursuit of common goals in the areas of industrial value creation and sovereignty. The office opening follows the successful rollout of TAC 1, the first test aircraft of the D328eco, which took place on May 28, 2025, and is intended to underscore the company's technological focus.
The Berlin office complements Deutsche Aircraft's existing headquarters in Oberpfaffenhofen and Leipzig. Oberpfaffenhofen serves as a research and development center and is heavily involved in the technical implementation of the D328eco program. Leipzig is developing into an important hub for industrial manufacturing and supply chains, where Deutsche Aircraft is building its production capacities. With the new branch in Berlin, Deutsche Aircraft sees itself as ideally positioned to collaborate with the German government and associations on key future topics such as digital transformation and industrial value creation.
