Paris, July 17, 2019
Textron Inc. (NYSE:TXT) has decided to put on hold the Hemisphere program, for
which Safran Aircraft Engines' Silvercrest had been selected.
The initial contract between Cessna (Textron Aviation) and Safran Aircraft
Engines is terminated with no financial impact for either partner.
While the Aircraft / Engine combination does not currently meet all the
objectives, the Silvercrest engine development has made the intended progress
over the past 12 months. The new High Pressure compressor shows performance for
which ground tests results have exceeded expectations. Upcoming tests are
planned to further confirm engine improvements and complete the overall engine
performance and durability validation.
Safran Aircraft Engines continues to work on the Silvercrest technology suite
as a R&T platform and will update Textron Inc. on the product completion thus
providing them with an opportunity for a reassessment of the situation.
