INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- The U.S. Defense Department has contracted Rolls-Royce to deliver its engine technologies supporting the Navy's T-45 training aircraft.

Under the $90 million MissionCare contract, Rolls-Royce will deliver the engines to power the T-45 training aircraft along with providing maintenance and logistics among other services for the F405s.
"This contract demonstrates the customer's satisfaction with our performance," David Waggoner, Rolls-Royce Defense Services president, said in a statement.
"We are very proud of our partnership with the U.S. Navy and look forward to the opportunity to continue providing engine readiness and availability which allows the U.S. Navy to accomplish their critical training mission."
