Dahlewitz
and Oberursel
Rolls-Royce Deutschland has a workforce
of around 2,000 divided between its two
sites in Dahlewitz near Berlin and Oberursel
near Frankfurt am Main.
Meet
our BR700 family
The BR700 family of engines, developed in
Dahlewitz, are the first German civilian
jet engines to have international certification.
Their distinguishing features are their
low operating costs, high ease of maintenance
and their unique environmental acceptability.
The Rolls-Royce BR710 is the sole engine
offered on the Gulfstream 500 and on the
Gulfstream 550 and on the Bombardier Global
Express long range business jets, as well
as on the new Bombardier super-large business
jet Global 5000.
It has also been selected
as the powerplant for the new British Nimrod
MRA4 reconnaissance aircraft. The 100-seat
Boeing 717-200 is powered by two more powerful
Rolls-Royce BR715 turbofans.
Helicopters
The Oberursel plant manufactures components
for the Rolls-Royce BR700 engines, and maintains
and overhauls small gas turbines for civilian
and military applications.
The RTM322 engines
for the NH90 helicopters of the German Bundeswehr's
which were developed in collaboration with
Rolls-Royce Turbomeca will also be assembled
and supported there.
