Over a century of defense expertise

Rolls-Royce has enabled U.S. military operations for more than 80 years through our transformative aerospace engine technologies. 

Today, our modern AE engines power the aircraft that U.S. warfighters and global allies depend on for the most demanding missions. From powering vertical lift, high altitude, long-endurance unmanned aircraft, to long-range, heavy-duty cycle civilian and military transport aircraft, we provide power wherever the mission demands. 

The AE engine family is the only modern propulsion line in the world with a turboshaft, turbofan, and turboprop from a single common core, which benefits the warfighter by reducing the logistics burden, sustainment costs, and supply chain complexity across every program it touches. 

This, combined with our safety and reliability record covering more than 92 million flight hours and 7,800 AE engines delivered worldwide, means the U.S. military can confidently choose Rolls-Royce for its newest, most dynamic, and most critical missions.
