Mitsubishi wins $940 million order to supply 20 of its regional jets

The Japanese firm has struggled with multiple delays in its effort to enter the regional jet market, currently dominated by Canada's Bombardier Inc and Brazil's Embraer SA .

Mitsubishi said the letter of intent signed with Aerolease for the jets, worth about $940 million, would be converted into a definitive contract in the next month or so, lifting the total number of orders for the Mitsubishi Regional Jets (MRJ) to 427, including 233 firm orders and 170 options.
The company said it had seen increased interest from potential customers after its first flight test concluded.
