RTX's Pratt & Whitney and Polish Air Force University to expand propulsion education opportunities for cadets
Pratt & Whitney, an RTX business, has signed a letter of intent with the Polish Air Force University to provide education on F100 and F135 fighter engine propulsion systems. The program will focus on advanced jet propulsion design, manufacturing, and production of engines powering Poland's F-16s and future F-35s.
The company's Rzeszów facility produces F100 static structures, critical rotating parts, and F135 components. In 2024, Pratt & Whitney strengthened Poland's fleet readiness by delivering F100 engines for F-16s and signing an agreement with Military Aviation Works No. 2 to explore expanded maintenance capabilities.
Pratt & Whitney, una società di RTX, ha firmato una lettera di intenti con l'Università dell'aviazione polacca per fornire istruzione sui sistemi di propulsione dei motori da combattimento F100 e F135. Il programma si concentrerà sulla progettazione avanzata della propulsione a reazione, sulla produzione e sulla produzione di motori che alimentano gli F-16 della Polonia e i futuri F-35.
Lo stabilimento di Rzeszów dell'azienda produce strutture statiche F100, parti rotanti critiche e componenti F135. Nel 2024, Pratt & Whitney ha rafforzato la prontezza della flotta polacca consegnando motori F100 per gli F-16 e firmando un accordo con i Lavori di Aviazione Militare n. 2 per esplorare capacità di manutenzione ampliate.

Lessons to focus on advanced F100 and F135 fighter engines
RZESZÓW,
"Pratt & Whitney Rzeszów is a leading aerospace company in
Pratt & Whitney's Rzeszów facility produces F100 static structures and critical rotating parts in support of new F100 engines and plays an important role in worldwide sustainment. The site also produces main engine structural components and rotating parts for the F135, the world's most advanced fighter engine ever produced, which will power
"Graduates of the Polish Air Force University are the future military leaders responsible for growing
Throughout 2024, Pratt & Whitney worked closely with the Polish Air Force and defense industry partners to strengthen
Should the Polish Air Force select the F-15EX to enhance its defense capabilities, the F100 engine is the best propulsion solution. The Polish Air Force's existing familiarity with the F100, coupled with the Polish industry's long-standing F100 MRO capabilities and experience, will provide the most cost effective and lowest risk path to sustaining the engines and maximizing fleet readiness for both the F-15EX and F-16.
