MTR390

The High Flying European Turboshaft

A collaborative engine offered by MTR

The MTR390 is a collaborative turboshaft engine made through a partnership between Rolls-Royce, MTU, and Safran Helicopter Engines (originally known as Turbomeca).

Powering the Tiger Helicopter

The MTR390 is suitable for a wide range of civil and military uses in helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, both in single and twin-engine installations.

The MTR390 is known for its ample emergency power, high output-shaft power capability, low fuel consumption under partial load, simple maintenance and low cost of ownership.

In September 2003, Spain became the second export customer for the Tiger. MTR developed an enhanced variant in partnership with ITP, offering 14 percent additional power, called the MTR390-E.
