Rolls-Royce Presents BR725 Engine to Power New Gulfstream G650
(March 13, 2008) -- Rolls-Royce today announced its fourth new engine programme in a year with the introduction of the BR725. The engine will be the exclusive powerplant for Gulfstream's new flagship corporate jet, the G650.
Rolls-Royce is the world's leading engine supplier for business jets with a 34 per cent share of the market.
The addition of the BR725 to the company's broad product portfolio marks the sixth new powerplant brought to the civil aerospace sector within the past six years. Its introduction further demonstrates the commitment of Rolls-Royce to delivering technological advances continually into the marketplace.
The BR725 is the most advanced member of the BR700 engine series. Its advanced technology and outstanding performance levels will enable the G650 to set new standards at the top end of the ultra-long-range corporate market. Over the next 20 years, these aircraft will operate in a market segment worth an estimated $14 billion in engine sales.
Mark King, President - Civil Aerospace, commented: "We are proud to have this opportunity to extend our highly successful relationship with Gulfstream, which builds on half a century of shared values.
"The BR725 brings to the market the most efficient and eco-friendly technologies currently available. Its outstanding levels of performance, economy and reliability make it the perfect partner for the G650."
