News Release<\/p>\n
Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR., ADR: RYCEY) marked the completion of a $1 billion, decade-long investment in its Indiana manufacturing, assembly, and test facilities- reinforcing the company\u2019s position as a cornerstone of America\u2019s defense industrial base and one of the state\u2019s leading advanced-manufacturing employers.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis billion-dollar investment is about more than buildings and test cells \u2014 it is about delivering for the American warfighter, on time and at the standard our customers expect. We made this investment because it was the right thing to do for U.S. national security and for the future of Rolls-Royce,\u201d said Adam Riddle, President, Defense, and CEO, Rolls-Royce North America.<\/p>\n
The investment \u2014 the largest the company has made in the United States \u2014 modernized advanced manufacturing across the Indianapolis campus and added full engine-test capability, including new ground test facilities, and an altitude test facility in West Lafayette. More Rolls-Royce defense products are built in Indianapolis than anywhere else in the world.<\/p>\n
\u201cRolls-Royce has called Indiana home for three decades, and this billion-dollar investment is a vote of confidence in Hoosier workers and our state. Advanced manufacturing like this is exactly what keeps Indiana\u2019s economy strong and growing. We are proud that Indiana is home to Rolls-Royce in the U.S., and we look forward to their continued success for generations to come,\u201d said Gov. Mike Braun.<\/p>\n
The campus tests and builds engines for a range of defense and commercial platforms, including future engines for the U.S. Air Force B-52 strategic bomber and the U.S. Army\u2019s MV-75 Cheyenne, as well as current engines for the V-22 Osprey, the U.S. Navy\u2019s MQ-25A Stingray and the C-130J.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis investment is a testament to the hard-working Hoosiers who power this facility. Rolls-Royce understands the importance of producing advanced military technologies here in the United States, and this billion-dollar investment shows that Indiana is leading the way in meeting the needs of our defense industrial base. I look forward to working with Rolls-Royce to ensure we capitalize on this investment and the future work that it will bring to our state,\u201d said Indiana U.S. Senator Todd Young.<\/p>\n
Rolls-Royce employs approximately 3,500 people in Indianapolis, including a skilled UAW workforce, and supports thousands more jobs through its Indiana supply chain.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe engines built in Indianapolis power the aircraft our warfighters depend on, and this investment strengthens the American defense industrial base at a moment when we need it most. Rolls-Royce is proving that we can manufacture the most advanced military technology in the world right here in Indiana. I am proud to support the men and women of this workforce and the vital role Indiana plays in keeping our nation secure,\u201d said Indiana Senator Jim Banks.<\/p>\n
Across the United States, Rolls-Royce has invested more than $1.5 billion in its facilities and nearly $2.5 billion in research and development over the past decade. In 2024 the company\u2019s U.S. operations contributed $6.2 billion to the national economy and, including R&D spillover, supported more than 30,000 jobs across 26 states. Every dollar the U.S. government invests in Rolls-Royce returns an estimated four dollars to the U.S. economy.<\/p>\n
\u201cIndiana is proud of our manufacturing history and the opportunities manufacturing provides for workers. Rolls Royce\u2019s presence in Indiana is three decades strong and counting, and this is its largest ever investment in Indiana yet — proof this legacy is only getting stronger. I\u2019m grateful for Rolls Royce\u2019s partnership in supporting our workers and our nation\u2019s national security,\u201d said Indiana Congressman Andr\u00e9 D. Carson.
\n\u201cThis new investment by Rolls-Royce will bring growth, excitement, and an economic boom to the Hoosier state. We\u2019re glad to see Rolls-Royce\u2019s continued investments into our communities and see them prioritize having a Made in America label on their products,\u201d said Indiana Congressman Marlin Stutzman.
\n\u201cToday, we are celebrating the best of what our state has to offer and the continued strength of our economy. This $1 billion investment by Rolls-Royce illustrates our world-class manufacturing tradition and highly skilled workforce, keeping Indiana at the top of the defense sector supply chain. Companies continue to choose Indiana because they know Hoosiers have the skills, work ethic, and determination to get the job done. This investment will help ensure Indiana remains a national leader in manufacturing for years to come,\u201c said Indiana Congresswoman Erin Houchin.
\n\u201cAfter a decade and $1 billion in investment, Rolls-Royce now builds more defense products in Indianapolis than anywhere else in the world. The company bet on Indiana. Hoosier workers delivered. The engines made here power and protect America\u2019s warfighters. This investment will keep that critical work \u2014 and the skilled jobs behind it \u2014 here at home for decades to come,\u201d said Indiana Congressman Jefferson Shreve.
\n\u201cRolls-Royce has been a longstanding part of Indianapolis for generations. This significant investment is a testament to our skilled workforce, strong automotive legacy, and our city\u2019s position as a global leader in advanced manufacturing. We are grateful Rolls-Royce continues to choose Indianapolis as a home for growth, and we look forward to the opportunities this commitment will bring to our community,\u201d said Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett.<\/p>\n
The Indianapolis campus is also home to LibertyWorks, the company\u2019s advanced-research organization, which has worked at the forefront of high-temperature materials and propulsion for decades, anchored by a $75 million, 10-year alliance with Purdue University.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rolls-Royce North America.
