\n Continued investment will accelerate path to integrated vehicle test <\/i>

\n EAST HARTFORD, Conn.<\/span>
\n <\/span>, March 4, 2025<\/span><\/span> \/PRNewswire\/ — Pratt & Whitney, an RTX (NYSE: RTX) business, has completed a series of tests on its rotating detonation engine (RDE) work with the RTX Technology Research Center. Positive test results are spurring additional internal investment as Pratt & Whitney works with Department of Defense to accelerate a path to an integrated engine and vehicle ground test in the coming years.<\/p>\n

“Our testing simulated aggressive assumptions for how and where the rotating detonation engine needs to perform,” said Chris Hugill<\/span>, senior director of GATORWORKS at Pratt & Whitney. “This testing validated key elements of Pratt & Whitney’s design approach and provides substantiation to continue RTX vehicle and propulsion integration to accelerate future capabilities for our customers.”<\/p>\n

Rotating detonation engines differ from traditional turbojet or turbofan engines in that they utilize a different thermodynamic cycle and require no moving parts. The result is high thermal efficiency and performance, which allows for a small, compact and cost-effective engine. These attributes create room for additional fuel, sensors and payload, and can enable longer-range for vehicles that are critical to future defense applications.<\/p>\n
