New Global Hawk engine

The Rolls-Royce AE3007H growth engine, the power plant for the RQ-4 Global Hawk unmanned aircraft system (UAS), is now being tested at AEDC under the eye of 717th Test Squadron Project Manager 2nd Lt. Jamie Gurganus and ATA Project Engineer Andrew Jackson. The engine has upgraded turbine hardware and an improved combustor that, if validated by this project, will enable the engine to have greater service life. (U.S. Air Force photo by Rick Goodfriend)
