Adaptive cycle engines are specially designed to alternate between efficiency and raw power—extending an aircraft’s range ...
The F-47’s adaptive cycle engine is built to switch modes in flight, delivering long-range efficiency and Mach 2+ power without the usual tradeoffs. This video breaks down how the three-stream design, ...
The F-47’s adaptive cycle engine can reconfigure itself in flight, shifting airflow to balance extreme efficiency, Mach 2+ thrust, and reduced heat signature. In this breakdown, we explain the three ...
The XA100 is the world’s first flight-weight, three-stream, adaptive cycle engine to run, and could power F-35s by the end of the 2020s. A new General Electric turboprop engine, derived from the 7,500 ...
Variable cycle engine design embodies a transformative approach in aero‐propulsion, enabling engines to adapt their thermodynamic cycle to meet diverse operational demands, from fuel efficiency to ...
