Rolls-Royce RB282 explained

The Rolls-Royce RB282 is a new series of twin-spool turbofan engines under development by Rolls-Royce.[1]

The first variant of this engine was intended to power the future Dassault Falcon 5X super mid-sized business jet, the replacement for the Falcon 50 EX, due to enter service in 2012.[2] The engine should develop 10,000 pounds of thrust.[3] In October 2013, Dassault chose to power the Falcon 5X with the Snecma Silvercrest instead.[4]
