Rolls-Royce Makes Unprecedented Offer to India for Full Ownership of a New Fighter Jet Engine

Rolls-Royce has presented a groundbreaking proposal to India for the co-development of a new, 120kN thrust fighter jet engine. The landmark offer includes the complete transfer of technology and full intellectual property (IP) rights to India. This would allow India to manufacture, maintain, and even export the advanced engine for its future AMCA Mark-II fighter jets. Such a comprehensive technology transfer deal is exceptionally rare in the global defense industry, where Western nations typically protect their proprietary engine technology. The proposal positions Rolls-Royce against competitors from the US and France for the lucrative contract.
