A hybrid-electric jet engine may seem as absurd as a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but GE Aerospace is ground testing a new ...
After decades of waiting, hopes for a truly 'made in India' fighter jet engine might finally be realised. New Delhi and Paris are preparing to co-develop a cutting-edge power plant—a project set to ...
To an untrained eye, the aircraft engine sitting outside of a Cincinnati facility in December might have looked like standard hardware. But NASA and GE Aerospace researchers watching the unit fire up ...
With their capability to fly higher, farther, and more efficiently, jet engines have transformed air travel since their introduction. From its origins in the 1930s, the jet engine was a substantial ...
GE Aerospace and Kratos have concluded high-altitude testing of a small jet engine intended to power uncrewed fighter aircraft. The pair, which announced their intent to jointly develop the GEK800 ...
A technician who once shaped jet engine parts by hand is now helping train ...
Innovations in jet technology are happening all the time. This is due to modern advancements, which are leading engineers in new directions previously only theorized. The latest example is the plasma ...
Producers of military jet engines are rolling out new lines of small turbofans, eyeing an expected boom in demand for uncrewed fighter aircraft. US propulsion suppliers Pratt & Whitney (P&W), GE ...
In addition, replacing all those mechanical parts makes the engine cheaper – an important point with what is essentially a disposable power plant. For testing, the engine installed in the ATLAS Flight ...
GE and Lockheed ground tested a new air-breathing hypersonic jet engine capable of powering missiles to speeds well in excess of Mach 5 in a smaller, cheaper, lighter, and more efficient package than ...
