  • Rolls-Royce and the UK government plan a 10-year, £2.5 billion research programme to develop civil and defence jet-engine technologies.
  • The programme targets more efficient, lower-emission engines, including a demonstrator to support entry into the narrowbody aircraft market.
  • New narrowbody aircraft are expected to enter service in the mid-to-late 2030s, with engine partners selected over the next few years.
  • Initial development would support 3,300 UK jobs by the end of 2029, subject to a final agreement.
  • Securing an engine position could add £120 billion to the UK economy over the programme’s lifetime, creating tens of thousands of jobs.
