Aerospace company Rolls Royce (RR.L) today announced a new deal with Lockhead Martin to supply 600 engines for C-130J Hercules aircraft. The agreement secures the Rolls-Royce AE 2100 as the engine of choice for all variants of the C-130J to 2025. The engine agreement will service US Government and International contract requirements between 2014 and 2018.
Tom Bell, Rolls-Royce, President Defense, said, “Lockheed Martin and Rolls-Royce have partnered for decades to produce thousands of the world’s leading medium transport aircraft. Our new engine agreement secures that relationship for years to come, enabling operators to continue to enjoy the versatile, powerful and fuel efficient aircraft they have come to appreciate through 1 million flight hours and counting.”
George Shultz, Lockheed Martin, Vice President and General Manager, C-130 Programs, said, ”This agreement is a very important step in providing our customers the most affordable airlifter in the world. The C-130J Super Hercules has proven the ‘value of the power’ as the Rolls-Royce AE 2100 propulsion system allows the Super Hercules to perform any mission, anywhere, any time.”
