On America’s 250th anniversary, we’re proud to reflect on our role in powering the missions that connect, protect and serve communities around the world. Our story in the United States stretches back generations, including the legacy of the Allison Engine Company, whose rapid expansion helped meet unprecedented demand for aircraft engine production during World War II. For over 70 years, Rolls-Royce engines have powered the U.S. military's legendary C-130, delivering humanitarian aid and tactical airlift capabilities across the globe. The AE 1107-powered V-22 Osprey redefined vertical lift, expanding the speed, range, and flexibility of tiltrotor operations for military missions around the world. And our F130 engines will modernize the iconic B-52J Stratofortress, extending its service life for decades to come. Behind every aircraft are the pilots, crews, maintainers, and service members who rely on them to accomplish extraordinary missions. As America marks its 250th, we reflect on the generations of innovation, partnership and service that have shaped aviation, and we are proud of our role in helping power missions around the world.
