The partnership, announced on 18 September, will cover in-service support of the Honeywell T-55 engine should the Luftwaffe select the Chinook to fulfil its Schwerer Transporthubschrauber (STH) heavy-lift helicopter requirement. Under the agreement, Honeywell will license Rolls-Royce Deutschland as its partner in Germany to perform depot-level maintenance of the Chinook T-55 engine operated by the Luftwaffe.

“The partnership between Honeywell, Rolls-Royce Deutschland and our industry team members provides an established local supply base for around-the-clock parts availability, NATO interoperability and streamlined aircraft maintenance procedures,” Vice President of Boeing Defense, Space and Security in Germany, Michael Hostetter, was quoted as saying. “The Luftwaffe will have access to training and sustainment solutions that ensures the H-47 Chinook’s readiness for any mission.”
