A titanium alloy having high strength, fine grain size, and low cost and a method of manufacturing the same is disclosed. In particular, the titanium alloy offers a room temperature longitudinal low cycle fatigue (LCF) maximum stress of at least about 950 MPa over about 20,000 cycles and a room temperature transverse low cycle fatigue (LCF) maximum stress of at least about 970 MPa over about 25,000 cycles. The titanium alloy is particularly useful for a multitude of applications including components of aircraft engines. The titanium alloy comprises, in weight percent, about 6.0 to about 6.7% aluminum, about 1.4 to about 2.0% vanadium, about 1.4 to about 2.0% molybdenum, about 0.20 to about 0.42% silicon, about 0.17 to about 0.23% oxygen, maximum about 0.24% iron, maximum about 0.08% carbon and balance titanium with incidental impurities.
