Given the increasing demand for ecological engines, IHI is striving to research and develop next-generation engines based on advanced technologies.

Furthermore, IHI has participated in the Japanese space development effort from the beginning, developing and producing turbopumps, a key component of rocket engines, gas-jet systems, both of which are embodiments of IHI's long-fostered technologies such as cryogenic-pump and turbomachinery. These activities were greatly expanded in space when the company acquired Nissan Motor Co., Ltd's Aerospace Division, a pioneer in solid rocket development in Japan. IHI is also playing an important role in development and construction of the Exposed Facilities of Japanese Experiment Module “KIBO”, which is a part of the International Space Station program.
