The Pratt & Whitney J57 (company designation: JT3C) is an axial-flow turbojet engine developed by Pratt & Whitney in the early 1950s. The J57 (first run January 1950 [ 1 ] ) was the first 10,000 lbf (45 kN) thrust class engine in the United States.
The Douglas F5D Skylancer is a development of the F4D Skyray jet fighter for the United States Navy.Starting out as the F4D-2N, an all-weather version of the Skyray, the design was soon modified to take full advantage of the extra thrust of the Pratt & Whitney J57 eventually fitted to the Skyray instead of the Westinghouse J40 originally planned.
Gulfstream G-III, NASA one Fixed Wing Business jet of the NASA Administrator: Active (1) 2003 - 2008 NA NASA one was a Gulfstream G-III with a seating capacity of 12 people. The jet is stored in an FAA hangar along with 3 other government planes. [32] NASA now shares a plane with FAA. Gulfstream X-54: Research, X-Planes, Proposed
The second major change to the RB-57D was the addition of Pratt & Whitney J57 engines in place of the Wright J65 engines used on all earlier B-57 models. The two J57 engines produced about 20,000 lbf (89.0 kN) total thrust, about 6,000 lbf (26.7 kN) more than the two J65 engines. Other changes in the D model included removal of all fuselage ...
The Rolls-Royce Olympus (originally the Bristol B.E.10 Olympus) was the world's second two-spool axial-flow turbojet aircraft engine design, first run in May 1950 and preceded only by the Pratt & Whitney J57, first-run in January 1950. [1] [2] It is best known as the powerplant of the Avro Vulcan and later models in the Concorde SST.
In April 2024, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory scientists accidentally caught a glimpse of the Cold War past, buried 100 feet under Greenland's frozen landscape.. Over 900 miles north of Nuuk, the ...
The Pratt & Whitney J58 (company designation JT11D-20) is an American jet engine that powered the Lockheed A-12, and subsequently the YF-12 and the SR-71 aircraft. It was an afterburning turbojet engine with a unique compressor bleed to the afterburner that gave increased thrust at high speeds.
Orca whales J47, calf J57 and Tahlequah J35. The outlet added that researchers discovered a new calf, different from the late J61, had been born in J Pod, a group of orcas that includes Tahlequah.
