ST Aerospace and Cosworth Group have signed a memorandum of understanding to jointly develop heavy fuel engine systems for unmanned systems customers in the Asia-Pacific.
The technical alliance will leverage ST Aerospace's expertise in propulsion-to-airframe integration and operator HMI requirements, alongside Cosworth's class-leading heavy fuel engine technology, for incorporation into the final engine systems.
"Our alliance with ST Aerospace is an exciting development for our lightweight heavy fuel engine programmes which have already gained significant momentum from our work with the US DoD [Department of Defense] and UK MoD [Ministry of Defence]," said Tim Routsis, chief executive of Cosworth Group.
