Adaptability of hybrid systems for platform requirements

The strength of hybrid systems is their ability to adapt the system architecture to meet specific platform needs. P&W, along with its RTX partners, is developing the key building blocks to meet the needs of over 100 unique platform requirements. Learn about how P&W is doing this and the challenges it is tackling along the way.
