The Middle East, as the crucible for challenging durability and performance conditions, is the focus for ongoing dust ingestion engine tests.

When 2025 is finally concluded, one niche area is going to rise above the rest of aerospace and defense. In a word, it is engines.

Ahead of entry-into-service of the Boeing 777X in the Middle East, GE Aerospace is studying a potential deployment of its 747-400 flying testbed to the Gulf equipped with a GE9X engine.

GE Aerospace is set to break ground on a $50 million On Wing Support maintenance facility for CFM Leap-1 and GE9X in Dubai.

Turkish Airlines has reached a deal with GE Aerospace to procure engines, spare engines and engine maintenance services for 75 Boeing 787 aircraft.

Hybrid-electric Passport tests, revelations of a third-stream adaptive concept and positive supercomputer results mark key advances for the RISE program.

Airlines, MROs and suppliers are seeing their recent investments in artificial intelligence start to yield results.

As Boeing slows down 777X flight testing, GE is accelerating GE9X dust ingestion durability testing.

The tests were conducted at a newly expanded test facility at Purdue University’s Maurice J. Zucrow Laboratories.

GE points to indications that—if integrated in a specific way—the Open Fan may even have more fuel efficiency benefits than previously thought.

Engine joint venture CFM International has outlined a multi-year improvement roadmap incorporating additional hardware and software upgrades.

Improved durability and easier installation underpin CFM’s adoption of third-stream architecture for its open fan engine.

South Korea, Japan and Taiwan are possible sales targets in Asia for the newly unveiled X-BAT VTOL collaborative combat aircraft, a Sheild AI official says.

Safran has implemented a dual-source strategy since the Leap program began, and the missing link was final assembly.

Shield AI, the software-focused company known for its widely used Hivemind autonomy system, plans to enter into the world of high-end aircraft development with an uncrewed fighter it calls X-BAT.

GE Aerospace's third-quarter 2025 results provided further validation that sets up the engine and propulsion OEM to be a dominant investor choice.

As the pressure to provide more parts rises, airframers and engine-makers are broadening their strategies.

CFM International continues to boost both production and repairs to support the red-hot CFM56 market.

GE Aerospace says it has begun deliveries of the first higher thrust versions of the ultra-long-range Global 8000's Passport engine to airframer Bombardier.

A recent study has flagged another potential threat to the strategic supply chain—a possible chokehold on a rare metal essential to high-performance engines.

GE Aerospace predicts up to 70,000 pilots in business and commercial aviation will soon be using its FlightPulse safety and efficiency performance application.

CFM International has begun key dust ingestion tests on the high-pressure (HP) turbine blades and nozzles at the center of the future small-core design.

NASA has contracted Momentus to use its Vigoride orbital service vehicle as a testbed to demonstrate a rotating detonation rocket engine in space in 2026.

European engine aftermarket leaders discussed how the sector is adjusting for the long haul at AeroEngines Europe.
