The service will then choose one engine design in 2018 to continue into the engineering and manufacturing development phase.<br\/><br\/>The Advanced Turbine Engine Co.\u00a0 \u2014 a Honeywell and Pratt &#038; Whitney team \u2014 was awarded a $154 million contract while GE Aviation was awarded $102 million. The work under the contracts is expected to take two years, ending in August 2018, according to the DoD announcement.<br\/><br\/>ITEP will replace the engine in roughly 3,000 UH-60 Black Hawk and AH-64 Apache helicopters with a more powerful and fuel-efficient one. The Army anticipates a total development cost of $720 million. <br\/><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s been a long road to get to the preliminary design phase. Army leaders stressed the engine replacement was its No. 1 priority, but after it wrapped up the science-and-technology phase, the service made little public progress toward the program\u2019s inception for well over a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two teams both developed engine concepts in the Army\u2019s science and technology effort leading up to the ITEP program of record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Army\u2019s new engine will be designed to save 25 percent on fuel consumption at 3,000-shaft horsepower, as well as boost the horsepower-to-weight ratio by 65 percent and engine-design life by 20 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ATEC is taking its experience developing engines for a variety of Army platforms and applying it to its ITEP design &#8211; the HPW3000 turboshaft engine &#8211; that it believes could save the Army $1 billion a year in fuel and maintenance costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GE Aviation, which makes the legacy engine in Black Hawks and Apaches, planned to submit its GE3000 engine to the ITEP preliminary design competition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The teams deeply developing concepts for the Army\u2019s replacement engine for an enormous portion of the service\u2019s helicopters
