Aircraft engines

Since the early 1930's, Volvo Aero has supplied engines for Swedish military aircraft.

We often work in close association with a partner. For example, General Electric (RM12 engine in the Gripen aircraft), Pratt & Whitney (RM8 engine in the Viggen aircraft) or Rolls-Royce (RM6 engine in the Draken aircraft).  Working as partners gives the benefit of two companies' competences and resources whilst reducing costs.

We take responsibility during an engine's entire life cycle. We are there throughout engine selection, development, production, assembling, testing, maintenance, repair and overhaul, product support and component improvement.

Our engine competence gives customer benefits such as high operational safety, high performance and availability combined with a low life cycle cost.
