#RollsRoyce #CombatEngine #DefExpo2022 #KishoreJayaraman“True self-reliance will come when such a partnership not only results in Intellectual Property (IP) ownership in India, but shared creation of capabilities in-country to indigenise defence technology in the future.” - Kishore Jayaraman, President, India & South Asia, Rolls-Royce
October 2022: Rolls-Royce has presented its advanced defence capabilities and future-ready technology solutions at the DefExpo 2022 in Gandhinagar (Gujarat) (Hall 9, Booth 9R.17) from 18th-22nd October. Rolls-Royce has reiterated its commitment to support India’s vision of self-reliance in defence, through collaboration opportunities to co-design, co-develop and co-produce fighter jet engines in the country.
The company also familiarised customers and potential partners with its technologically superior offerings for naval defence, including full-electric propulsion solutions and the power-dense MT30 marine gas turbine for aircraft carriers, frigates and destroyers.
Kishore Jayaraman, President, India & South Asia, Rolls-Royce, said, “As India takes steps to realise its vision of ‘self-reliance’ in defence, we believe we are well positioned to help leapfrog this journey through meaningful partnerships for co-creation of engine technologies. True self-reliance will come when such a partnership not only results in Intellectual Property (IP) ownership in India, but shared creation of capabilities in-country to indigenise defence technology in the future.”
Alex Zino, Executive Vice President - Business Development & Future Programmes, Rolls-Royce, said, “The UK is a natural ally for India, and it is heartening that the two countries have pledged greater cooperation in defence. India can leverage the combined strength of its own scientific talent and resources along with the UK’s technology experience to accelerate its combat engine development program. We, at Rolls-Royce, are committed to support such a partnership. Our rich history of engine technology development for both civil and defence engines, particularly in the gas turbine-based aero-engine segment, makes us a partner of choice to collaborate and co-develop defence technology in India.”
