    USA Inside America's deadly gun culture

    America is the biggest gun market, such incidents won't shake it one bit. And actually nobody talked about gun ownership yet, all the talk is about ball rooms.

    I don't know how they find those news, but it is absolutely more appropriate for the Japanese Navy to go for the TB3 as they have the ships that can benefit from it while their army can find other makers for the role of the TB2. We may be waiting longer to find out the truth of the matter but it...

    Users want to maintain technological edge over the competition, if it makes sense for them they will bear the cost and ante up the money. Countries that can source the raw materials that go into making of the high end alloys domestically can use them to be on top of the game. The cost is only a...

    The drone's name is Sivrisinek and while it means mosquito in English mosquito is not Sivrisinek's name. There is a well known helicopter brand overseas with the name Mosquito.

    Snecma M88 achieves 1577 °C with air cooled, ceramic coated, single crystal turbine blades made from a new AM1 alloy (N-18 alloy in the final production engines), So it is reasonable to consider matching this performance level for the TF35k engine. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snecma_M88...

    Alloys' performance stops improving at around 1400 °C and additional performance is achieved mostly through cooling. Small blades offer little real estate to implement cooling and larger blades can host more cooling features hence deliver better peak performance. Also 5 years passed since the...

    This is my guess based on the performance levels of some modern day engines shown in the table below. I would expect a threshold level be passed with the TF35k engine.

    There are more news in the post over the info at the link, like implementation on rig level and engine level. TS1400 engine implementation was earlier and probably some of the complementary technologies like cooling holes were not fully implement on it as those turbine blades are tiny. TF10k...

    There must be something new about this as TEI posted this piece of news, probably implementation on real engines. Otherwise why this news now, am I missing something?

    TEI considers this a done deal. This tech combined with other complementary technologies like coatings and cooling features will probably already get us to 1580+°C TIT level. This piece of news brings more confidence in the timely making of the TF35k engine by TEI and partners. This level can...

    For the missile to carry its weight against gravity it has to generate lift using its small wings and its exhaust hot stream. The hot stream needs to have some downward push to generate lift hence needs some angle. Its wings can generate lift at between 0 to 15 degrees of angle also depending on...

    I don't look up to Hitler but I look up to big militaries who went up from 300 meter long carriers to 333 meter ones for better seakeeping. Who am I to judge their decisions.
