Great article! BAE can also offer expertise in structural testing (test facility at Brough), avionics (HUD, Striker helmet, active inceptors in Rochester) or even building airframe parts (like the tail and fin it builds for the F35 at Samsesbury). Maybe other British companies can also benefit (Martin-Baker seats, Cobham antennas and refuelling probes), etc. Are you sure that the Rolls-Royce new engine offer is a totaly separate bid from the Eurojet EJ200 offer? thanks, Balazs Holics Hungary
Hi Balazs, in reference to your question on the Rolls-Royce engine offer, this was announced just prior to the IDEF event, Eurojet and Rolls-Royce's offers are firewalled from each other, there is no direct relation. Hope that helps.
유로제트에 롤스로이스 빠지면 개털임. 어차피 하드브렉시트로 EU랑 빠이빠이 한 영국이 TFX 엔진을 롤스로이스 혼자 먹을 수 있는 기술을 갖고 있는데 뭐 하러 유로제트 꼽사리 끼도록 하겠음?? 철지난 구닥다리 EJ200보다 더 나은 (민수용 엔진 개량이 아닌) '전투기' 엔진 만들 기술을 갖고 있는 게 롤스로이스인데..ㅉㅉ
유럽에서 제대로 된 전투기 엔진 만들 수 있는 회사는 롤스로이스 하나 밖에 없어요.. 라팔 엔진(M88-2) 만든 프랑스 스네크마는 기술 수준이 한 수 아래급임.
