Tyne

The Tyne Mk 21/22 turboprop engine, delivering 4100 kW, powers the Transall military transport and the Breguet Atlantic reconnaissance/antisubmarine warfare aircraft. The commercial version of the Tyne is used in the freight planes CL44 Vanguard and Short Belfast freighter aircraft. So far, the Tyne is the most powerful propeller engine of the Western world. 470 engines of this type were built under license from Rolls-Royce at MTU and its predecessor M.A.N. Turbo from 1966 to 1972.

MTU still provides maintenance and repair services for the Tyne. Together with its partners Rolls-Royce and Snecma Group the company is manufacturing spare parts for the German and French air forces.
