Advanced Combat Air Power

future combat air systems

Discover how Rolls-Royce is developing advanced combat air power to meet the unprecedented demands of future combat air systems.

  

Future Proofing Mission Capability
For over a century, Rolls-Royce has provided thrust to propel combat air vehicles.  Now, through continuous development of our world-leading capabilities in the aerospace market, we are pioneering more advanced and integrated power and propulsion systems.  In addition to thrust, our systems will provide all the electrical power needed to support on-board mission systems and critical future technology insertion, whilst managing all the thermal load.  This will ensure future combat air systems remain at the forefront of mission capability throughout their service.
