What is the future of air dominance?
In this era of rapidly advancing technologies, propulsion must remain a competitive advantage. Alex Johnson, director of Adaptive Engine Programs at Pratt & Whitney, an RTX business, explains how the Next Generation Adaptive Propulsion program is paving the way for a step change in air power capabilities. Thanks to the Pratt & Whitney XA103’s adaptive architecture, engine components actively adjust to provide optimized fuel efficiency, survivability, and power and thermal management all at the same time. In an increasingly dynamic global theatre, air dominance is critical for success across all domains.
“We have to adapt not only the products that we're creating, but we have to adapt the way that we're developing those products. And so, we bring in things like digital, we bring in things like agile management practices, because we have to innovate to be able to move faster.”
