Beehive Industries will test its 3D-printed engines for use by the USAF, which are reportedly cheaper to build, use, and service compared to traditionally manufactured engines.
GE Aerospace in Cincinnati is using a 747 aircraft as a flying laboratory to test jet engines under extreme conditions, ...
A hybrid-electric jet engine may seem as absurd as a horse-drawn Zeppelin, but GE Aerospace is ground testing a new megawatt-class hybrid turbofan engine and its full powertrain that is powerful ...
Five years ago, in 2021, American space agency NASA announced it is working on yet another project that doesn’t involve, well, space: the Hybrid Thermally Efficient Core (HyTEC). Since then, NASA’s ...
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 ...
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 ...
A next-generation combustor and refined turbine aerodynamics also help the engine trim its overall carbon emissions and limit ...
