Based on the MS400, the Luch Design Bureau in Kyiv designed a Ukrainian subsonic cruise missile with all-weather capabilities, the R-360 Neptune, with a range of up to 300 kilometres. [ 4 ] The MS400 is also studied for the development of Vietnam's VCM-01 cruise missile family.
In an internal combustion engine, a turbocharger (also known as a turbo or a turbosupercharger) is a forced induction device that is powered by the flow of exhaust gases. It uses this energy to compress the intake air, forcing more air into the engine in order to produce more power for a given displacement .
Turbo-Hydramatic or Turbo Hydra-Matic is the registered tradename for a family of automatic transmissions developed and produced by General Motors. These transmissions mate a three-element turbine torque converter to a Simpson planetary geartrain , providing three forward speeds plus reverse.
Developed by GE Aircraft Engines during the late 1960s, the original engine comprises a single stage fan, driven by a 4-stage low pressure (LP) turbine, supercharging a 14-stage high pressure (HP) compressor, driven by a 2-stage HP turbine.

The powerplant selected was the Volvo-Flygmotor RM12, a licence-built derivative of the General Electric F404−400; engine development priorities were weight reduction and lowering component count. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] On 30 June 1982, with approval from the Riksdag , [ 19 ] the FMV issued contracts worth SEK 25.7 billion to Saab, covering five ...
Pumping losses have been reduced by electrification of the waste gate of the twin turbo system. The engine achieves 37% thermal efficiency. [17] A hybrid version (marketed as "i-FORCE MAX" in North America) is also available with the same engine designation as the regular variant. The hybrid version was named Ward's World's 10 Best Engines list ...
The modular kit consists of a number units that are attached to a standard Mk80-series bomb. A guidance system and large tail fins are the most basic form of the system, optional folding wings and a rocket motor may be added to increase the stand-off range up to 120 kilometres (75 mi) or add a low-level launch capability.
