The Owj (Persian: اوج, Apex) is an Iranian advanced turbojet engine developed by the Iran Aviation Industries Organization (IAIO). It is a reverse-engineered and enhanced version of the General Electric J85, showcasing Iran's ability to develop cutting-edge technology and its self-sufficiency in producing high-performance military engines, and demonstrating its capability to create advanced ...
Over time, SAHA became an important part of Iran’s aviation industry. In 1998, Iranian scientists and experts started designing, engineering, and manufacturing complex engine parts, airplane parts, and manufacturing turbine engines like Toloue-4. SAHA is currently working on turbo prop engines called TV-3 for IrAn-140 planes. Accomplishments:
The engine is a copy of the French Microturbo TRI 60 engine and is used in Noor anti-ship cruise missiles as well as UAVs. [3] [4] It is a three-stage axial design with a length of 1.3m that can produce 3.7 kN of thrust at 29,500 RPM and weights 54.7 kg. [1] A throttleable and more durable version named Toloue-5 is also in development. [5]
In 2016, Iran unveiled its first "national turbojet engine" dubbed "Owj" (Apex). [26] Manufactured with more than 14,000 parts, it is capable of flight at 50,000 feet and can be mounted on planes with a maximum takeoff weight of ten tons. [26] Iran says that superalloys and
This is the case on many large aircraft such as the 747, C-17, KC-10, etc. If you are on an aircraft and you hear the engines increasing in power after landing, it is usually because the thrust reversers are deployed. The engines are not actually spinning in reverse, as the term may lead you to believe.
Aside from the known uses listed below, it is widely speculated that Iran illegally purchased many TRI 60 engines from Microturbo to assemble C-802 cruise missiles purchased from China. It is unclear which variant was purchased. [3] [4] Iran also reverse-engineered this engine as the Toloue-4 turbojet engine.
GE Aviation, part of the General Electric conglomerate, currently has the largest share of the turbofan engine market. Some of their engine models include the CF6 (available on the Boeing 767, Boeing 747, Airbus A330 and more), GE90 (only the Boeing 777) and GEnx (developed for the Boeing 747-8 & Boeing 787 Dreamliner and proposed for the Airbus A350) engines.
Iran claims to have upgraded its F-4, F-5, and F-14 fighter jets, and produced spare parts including tires, avionics, and engine components.
