The second X-48B was modified into the X-48C starting in 2010 for further flight tests. [19] The X-48C has its vertical stabilizers moved inboard on either side of the engines, and its fuselage extended aft, both to reduce the aircraft's noise profile; it was to be powered by two JetCat turbines, each producing 80 pounds-force (360 N) of thrust.

English: The X-48C Hybrid Wing Body aircraft flies over Rogers Dry Lake on Feb. 28, 2013, from NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards Calif. The long boom protruding from between the tails is part of the aircraft's parachute-deployment flight termination system.
The other production X engine is the ChTZ Uraltrac 12N360 X-12 engine, first produced in 2015, and used in the Russian Armata tank platform. [ 5 ] Several prototype 24-cylinder X engines for military aircraft were developed during World War II, including the Daimler-Benz DB 604 , Rolls-Royce Exe and Isotta Fraschini Zeta R.C. 24/60 , along with ...
The Vultee P-66 Vanguard was a United States Army Air Forces fighter aircraft.It was initially ordered by Sweden, but by the time the aircraft were ready for delivery in 1941, the United States would not allow them to be exported, designating them as P-66s and retaining them for defensive and training purposes.
The wing is metal instead of composite and the aircraft is equipped with a Teledyne Continental Motors FADEC-controlled engine mounted on a metal space frame instead of the Europa's Rotax 912 engine mounted on the fiberglass fuselage. The landing gear is also of a different design. [3] The Liberty was designed by Ivan Shaw, who also created the ...
The X-44 design had a reduced radar signature (due to lack of tail and vertical stabilizers) and was made more efficient by eliminating the tail and rudder surfaces, and instead using thrust vectors to provide yaw, pitch and roll control. [1] The X-44 MANTA design was based on the F-22. The engine and fuselage would be carried over to the X-44.
Sporting a 22:1 pressure ratio, which was a record for single-spool compressors at the time, the GE27 [3] was GE's unsuccessful submission to power the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey tiltrotor aircraft. The GE27 also had a compressor air flow of 27–28 pounds per second (12–13 kg/s) and a turbine temperature of 2,400–2,500 °F (1,320–1,370 °C ...
