Rolls-Royce Bags $1.2B US V-22 Aircraft Engines Contract
Rolls-Royce has secured a five-year MissionCare contract valued at $1.2 Billion to maintain AE 1107C engines on US Marine Corps, Navy and Air Force V-22 aircraft.
Under the MissionCare contract, the company will be responsible for all aspects of propulsion system support, on a Power by the Hour basis, Rolls-Royce said in a statement Tuesday.
The engine-maker claims to have delivered nearly 1,000 AE 1107C engines to power the fleet of V-22 aircraft in operation around the world. The total fleet of more than 375 MV-22s and CV-22s in service recently topped 500,000 flight hours – or 1 million engine hours on the twin-engine aircraft.
