Rolls-Royce has the broadest portfolio of power systems and services in the aerospace industry. The Group provides engines for more than 30 types of civil aircraft, and its products are in service with 41 of the world’s top 50 airlines and cargo carriers and 160 armed forces.
A good example of the advantages of having a broad portfolio is in the defence sector where Rolls-Royce was selected as propulsion system provider for C-27J transporters in the Joint Cargo Aircraft (JCA) programme for the US Army and US Air Force.
Engines and aftermarket services for the first 78 aircraft are worth more than $500 mln over the life of the JCA programme.
The AE 2100D2 turboprop for the JCA shares 80% commonality with the AE 3007 turbofan and the AE 1107C-Liberty turboshaft. This family of engines powers seven different aircraft platforms, including transporters, unmanned air vehicles, regional jets, seaplanes and surveillance aircraft. To date, the Group has delivered almost 4,000 engines across this range of programmes.
Rolls-Royce further broadened its portfolio by signing a ground-breaking agreement with Dassault Aviation to provide a new engine for the next-generation Falcon business jet. Rolls-Royce is the world’s leader in this market, providing engines for Bombardier, Cessna, Embraer and Gulfstream.
