The agreement will see the A350F begin replacing the airline&#8217;s existing B747-400F fleet in the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/12\/airbus-preparing-independent-assessment-over-a350.html\">Airbus preparing for an independent assessment disagreement over A350 surface degradation.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are honoured by Singapore Airlines\u2019 vote of confidence in the A350F as it renews its freighter fleet. The A350F is the world\u2019s all-new large freighter and will be unmatched in its market segment in terms of operational efficiency, lower fuel consumption and CO\u2082 savings,\u201d said Christian Scherer, Airbus Chief Commercial Officer and Head of Airbus International. \u201cIt is gratifying that Singapore Airlines recognises the value of the A350F as we build on the strong partnership we already enjoy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier this year Airbus received Board of Directors approval for a freighter derivative of the A350 designed to meet the imminent wave of large freighter replacements and the evolving environmental requirements, shaping the future of airfreight. The A350F will be powered by latest technology, fuel-efficient Rolls-Royce Trent-XWB97 engines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><strong>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2021\/12\/pratt-whitney-introduces-gtf-advantage-engine.html\">Pratt &amp; Whitney introduces the GTF Advantage engine for A320neo.<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The A350F will have a high level of commonality with the A350 passenger versions. With a 109 tonne payload capability, the A350F will serve all cargo markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over 70% of the airframe will be made of advanced materials, resulting in a 30 tonne lighter take-off weight and generating at least 20% lower fuel consumption and emissions over its current closest competitor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Singapore Airlines is the world\u2019s largest operator of the A350, with 56 aircraft currently in service across its network. The agreement with Singapore Airlines is the third commitment received for the new A350F over the past month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div
