I'm talking within the class of engine we are talking about. F-18s pretty brutally put two together that Tejas uses one of. So you are naturally going to get lot more payload and range by doing that. Making a single engine lot larger and thrusty is different to what I'm getting at. Yes F-35...

Jet Engine + Gas Turbine discussion has been moved here given larger interest/scope: https://defencehub.live/threads/jet-engine-gas-turbine-tech-thread.3916/

No (many parts inside are indeed adjustable/variable during operation), let me tell you why, hopefully without confusing. I might as well input the time now to save time later (as I figure lot of people in this forum are interested in this subject and can have a future reference to use). First...

I see black lagoon being mentioned a few times. Worthy one....I've always enjoyed that part of the world too (Bangkok/Thailand, which iirc was being imitated for the overall locale)...throw in bunch of misfits into a PT boat....good stuff. Liked their approach to that whole russian syndicate...

Interesting read @Vergennes ^^

That is all linked to it being single engined in the end. It again comes down to do you want to go local MIC and build up more that way mid and long term...or same ole I need the best-est thing out there and keep doing that forking arm and a leg each time and foregoing funding and dev to...

https://www.livefistdefence.com/2020/12/12-years-after-pitch-to-indian-navy-boeing-ski-jumps-super-hornet.html It was in 2008 that Boeing officially communicated to the Indian Navy that F/A-18 Super Hornet fighters could operate off the (then under refurbishment) Admiral Gorshkov aircraft...

IAC-1 will hit active duty in 2022 sometime. Right now basin trials is finished and 2021 will be final fitting out and sea trials. Navy is not interested in N-LCA...it very likely will not be bought. The idea was to further develop it into Twin engine model (TEDBF) that Navy wants...it looks...

Too much talk here about lesser shows...there is really only one that matters at all... There's even a resident Saiyan on this forum *mindblown*....too OP!

Let us see where this negotation for 1 squadron goes for Indian Navy...given they are clearly testing it out. Then there could be follow up order too.

Eurasiantimes is pretty sensationalist. Count all chickens before they hatch, or are even laid heh. We welcome Turkey improving its relations with Israel and we will see what doors that open later for more dialogue with India too. Nothing set in stone permanently But generally for any...

Yah the larger concept is well known for quite some time...especially in cold section where its very fundamental to do (Variable inlet guide vanes etc)....given low --> hi basic pressure flow and thus large surge issues if you dont have variable restrictor available as the compressor section got...

You can just make out jupiters moons in the 1st pic too. Nice pic, thanks for posting.

Yep it got sidetracked because there are several things I hold dear about China, that chauvinists just trample all upon on purpose or because they have no self-awareness. So I try to show the strawman tactic being used to audience etc. I keep forgetting how much of waste of time it is...in the...

I didn't know you were the one that put in the work for it (the force level number stuff for each A/c)....so I might have come off a bit dismissive in my earlier posts as I assumed everything was from another source (I got confused coz of that 2021 World AF cover etc). A job well done and...

Human rights, the basis of hearts and minds must be the underlying basis as far as possible. There must be good delivery mechanism to deliver to Kashmiri public as well under aegis of law, order and security so that their businesses and commerce can grow and expand well again. This include...
