AE1107C Rolls-Royce Engine get contract by US Marine

Robust and combat-proven, the Rolls-Royce-produced turboshaft is part of the AE product family and exclusively powers the growing US V-22 fleet. The AE family has logged an impressive 58 million flight hours and has over 5,800 engines in service.

Rolls-Royce has been awarded a $57.1 million contract to support AE 1107C engines used in the V-22 aircraft operated by the US Marine Corps and Air Force.


To improve performance Rolls-Royce has executed a number of engine modifications allowing for 17 percent additional power to the AE 1107, extending time on wing and increased 'hot and high' operation.
