b52 F130 engine...

What if instead of this F130 engine.
They gave the B-52 eight F135 engines, the same from the F-35.

Would the B-52 be able then to supercruise?

    No the B-52 is not a supersonic design. It would probably break apart over its 0.88-0.9 mach rating

      i mean the fact that it can pull mach .88 or .9 is impressive on its own

            Rolls Royce cars and Rolls Royce Engineering are 2 separate entities and have been since 1934.

            Now MTU that powerhouse of German diesel combustion, they are owned by the British.

              Pretty sure it’s only MTU aero engines they bought.

                MTU Aero is an independent company
                MTU Friedichshafen (who does diesels mainly) is owned by Rolls-Royce

            No, British.

            Wait until you find out how much of the US MIC BAE Systems has been quietly buying up.

              BAE Systems isn't worth shit, meanwhile ABE Systems Inc. IS part of US MIC.

              Rolls Royce has actually been involved in aerospace from the very begining. Rolls, or maybe it was Royce, was actually one of the first people ever killed in a plane crash.

        The old pork barrel procurement routine. Have to wrap yourself in the stars and stripes to compete with inferior US providers.

        LibertyWorks in particular really makes me laugh. I'm surprised a MIDI star spangled banner doesn't start playing when you click on it.

        They don't do anything like that outside the US.

      Anon, do you understand transnational investment? Even if RR is registered in UK, that doesn’t mean that the company or the vast majority of its employees are bong. Globalization has made your notion of nations and national production obsolete more than half a century ago.
