Inside Rolls Royce Factory - Building Future Jet Engine

[dexter]

We visited Rolls Royce Engine factory in Derby, England in January. This vlog takes a detail look at how Rolls Royce built the XWB engine, the exclusive engine on Airbus A350. We also take a look at the various engine test bed sites include their latest test site bed 80 under construction.
In the video, Rolls Royce explained what went wrong with their Trent 1000 engines on Boeing 787 and their future plans on much bigger Ultra Fan Engine.

Excellent, best of British. Rolls Royce is one reason why Tempest will be more successful that the EU competitor, as it will be all about the engine, and electrical power generation capabilities for the platform.

Shame about the job losses recently, but i do hope their maintain their core R&D and manufacturing in the UK.
