Rolls-Royce launch new effort for supersonic propulsion
Rolls-Royce and Reaction Engines will partner to develop high-speed aircraft propulsion systems for civil and defense aerospace gas and hybrid-electric engines.
Rolls-Royce has been working closely with Reaction Engines for the past two years. Still, the official agreement of partnership would allow more thorough research regarding “opportunities of supersonic and hypersonic aviation.”
Specifically, the British engine juggernaut seeks to explore Reaction Engines’ thermal management technology within both its existing and future turbine designs.
