(CercleFinance.com) – Rolls-Royce today announced a partnership with IHI Corporation, a Japanese specialist in engineering solutions, to develop and deliver a future combat engine demonstrator.
‘The engine demonstration program will be a crucial step in enabling both countries to develop their future fighter jet needs, potentially securing hundreds of future jobs in the UK and Japan,’ Rolls-Royce said.
Joint work is due to start in early 2022, backed by a £ 30million investment fund from the UK.
The UK investment will be complemented by an additional £ 200million in funding for the development of a full scale demonstration power system, supporting hundreds of highly skilled jobs, many at Rolls’ Filton factory -Royce in Bristol, assures the British engine manufacturer.
