Is that cheaper/more expensive relative to comparables? also what is the weight of the engine?

Is that cheaper/more expensive relative to comparables? also what is the weight of the engine?

LHTEC CTS800-4A used on T-129 and T-625 prototypes weighs 170kg.

 

[adenl]

According to TEI brochure the TS-1400 provides 8.54 shp per kg. 1400/8.54=163kg weight for the TS-1400. 163kg*$6000=$978000

Close up

 

[adenl]

Compared to the MTR-390 engine on the Tiger attack helicopter, the TS1400 would weigh just 2.27kg more if it provided as much power as the MTR-390 (1465shp). For a first time engine in this class, it outperforms most of its competitors. MTR-390 8.66hp/kg vs TS1400 8.54hp/kg

PD-222 Turbodiesel engine is being developed for Akıncı.

 

[Zafer]

The numbers given for the engine weight should get clarified. Is it the whole package or are there some parts left out? The definite number can be given when the engine gets certified. We should be delighted with the indicative numbers nonetheless.

 

[Zafer]

The 30.000 hour flight time engine must be the elusive PG115.

The 30.000 hour flight time engine must be the elusive PG115.

Why is it so secret?

 

[Turko]

Great job.They achieved to produce aviation engine which is amazing however conventional diesel for tanks still remains problem. Unbelievable.

 

[Zafer]

I guess the engines make up 20% of the cost of a civilian helicopter.
