Orbital ATK Inc., Dulles, Va., a provider of aerospace and defense technologies, has entered into a long-term aerospace supply agreement with Fly S.p.A. of Italy, a division of the Forgital Group.
Under the $68 million agreement, Fly will provide metallic case components through 2026 for the Rolls-Royce Trent XWB-84k engine that powers the Airbus A350-900. Fly will supply to Orbital ATK the seamless metallic V-groove ring assembly for the composite fan containment case manufactured by Orbital ATK.
The Orbital ATK partnership with Rolls-Royce began in 2009 with the supply of aft fan cases for the Trent-XWB-97k engines and expanded in 2013 with an agreement to provide an increased supply through 2024. Fly currently is Rolls-Royce’s supplier of titanium forgings for other fan case modules in the Trent XWB engines.
