Rolls-Royce RB282

The Rolls-Royce RB282 is a series of twin-spool turbofan engines that was under development by Rolls-Royce for business jets. The first variant was intended to power the future Dassault Falcon 5X, a super mid-sized business jet that was to replace the Falcon 50 EX and was then expected to enter service in 2012, and the engine was credited with 10,000 pounds of thrust. In October 2013 Dassault chose to power the Falcon 5X with the Safran Silvercrest instead, so the RB282 did not go into that aircraft. The source records no first run, production run or further application for the series, so it stands as a development programme of the Rolls-Royce turbofan line rather than an engine that entered service.
