TOKYO, Oct 02, 2009 (Kyodo News International - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) --
MHVYF | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. said Friday a U.S. airline company will purchase up to 100 small passenger jets under development by an MHI subsidiary, marking the first overseas order for the aircraft.

The Nagoya-based subsidiary, Mitsubishi Aircraft Corp., won the order from Trans States Holdings, which has two leading regional airlines under its wing.

Trans State Holdings has finalized orders for 50 of the passenger jets, dubbed the Mitsubishi Regional Jet, and placed tentative orders for another 50, according to a press release by Mitsubishi Aircraft.

The announcement now puts the total number of orders for the MRJ at 125, which includes the first 25 from All Nippon Airways Co.

ANA became the first airline to place a formal order for the MRJ, announcing March 27 it had finalized orders for 15 units and placed tentative orders for another 10.

Trans States Holdings is based in St. Louis, Missouri, and has Trans States Airlines and GoJet Airlines under its wing, Mitsubishi Aircraft said. It has 350 daily flights to 50 cities and also provides feeder services to United Airlines and US Airways.

The MRJ is set to become Japan's first domestically developed passenger jet, which will seat 70 to 90 passengers. MHI has said the planned jet is fuel-efficient and will provide a low-noise cabin environment and aims to launch it in 2012.
