Well,

When I was in Khamis,Red Sea Area, Saudi Arabia in 2009 we had 45 F-15 fighters each plane had 2 P&W F100 Turbine Engines, RSAF replace all 90 P&W Engines with GE F110 Turbine Engines. All Pratt Whitney people were reassigned to other projects. There is competition through out the life of every aircraft there is plenty more to happen the next forty years. P&W has joint ventures with Rolls Royce Commercial Aircraft on Air Bus that is a more interesting story.

I am in favor of GE getting the Pentagon contract. We need to look at giving jobs to our own country.
