Rolls-Royce Tapped For More V-22 Engines

$700 Million Contract For 370 AE 1107C-Liberty's

Rolls-Royce has signed a $700 million production contract with the Naval Air Systems Command to produce 370 AE 1107C-Liberty engines for the US Marine Corps' MV-22 and the US Air Force's CV-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft.

The five-year contract coincides with the first combat deployment of MV-22 aircraft that took place this month, as reported by ANN.

The production agreement includes engines for 148 aircraft plus 74 spares, for deliveries going forward to 2013.

Dennis Jarvi, President Defense North America for Rolls-Royce, said: "This agreement represents another significant step in the development of this revolutionary aircraft. Rolls-Royce engines will provide the power, speed and range our customer requires to meet their mission."
