VERO BEACH — Piper Aircraft Services-Manufacturing has received a contract for about $90,000 in machined parts from Triton Submarines LLC of Vero Beach.

Piper President and Chief Executive Officer Simon Caldecott said Triton's "vigorous design goals and manufacturing standards are consistent with Piper's precision manufacturing process. This is a perfect example of the kind of work that Piper Aircraft Services can accomplish."

Triton Chief Executive Officer Bruce Jones said the partnership "seems like a natural fit in that both our products are manufactured to high safety standards and are relied upon in harsh environments. We are looking forward to partnering on additional work beyond this first contract."

Triton was established in 2007 to manufacture manned submersibles designed exclusively for yacht-based deployment. It is a subsidiary of U.S. Submarines Inc.
