Is agile the right way for engineering development projects?

Informing myself about agile projects I get the impression this method is mainly used for software projects to get a first product fast and optimize afterwards.

I wonder if it makes sense to apply agile to an engineering development project, were the product is pretty clear as well as the way to develop it, but changes due to client wishes are common around once a quarter. More common and a cause for regular delay are changes in the priorization of the projects and therefore of the ressources.

Can the agile methods help to improve the setting / fulfilling of clear requirements (For sure in some way they can be used to change the way of working and therefore improving things)?
Did anybody use agile methods to reach a deeper commitment by the decision makers?
