A new contract covers conceptual studies of power and propulsion systems for the next-generation of combat air capabilities, based on exploring both existing and future technology and performing demonstrations.
The facility will include carbon fibre composites manufacture, along with advanced robotic assembly for major components, and final assembly and test capabilities.
The eight foot, 300lb drone was dropped at 12,000 ft and accelerated to Mach 0.9, flying for 10 miles. It was powered by a hydrogen peroxide monopropellant engine at 80% thrust in order to not exceed Mach 1.
A new production line at Patria's Halli facility in Jämsä, Finland, will manufacture 400 sets of landing gear doors for the F-35 global fleet.
An 18 month certification campaign ensured impressive takeoff and landing performance, while still maintaining a 99% commonality of parts with the standard P2012 Traveller series aircraft.
Eaton will supply the aircraft's hydraulic power generation and hydraulic conveyance components in addition to oil swivels, hydraulic panels and maintenance-free accumulators.
The site's seating assembly capacity is expected to triple throughout 2024, with deliveries to 14 separate customers across multiple original equipment manufacturer linefits and several retrofit locations.
The HyFIVE liquid hydrogen fuel system complements GKN's existing hydrogen electric propulsion programme, H2GEAR.
The SIMULIA PowerFLOW application has provided fluid dynamics simulation to predict real-world operating conditions, allowing Embraer and Eve's engineers to evaluate how the aircraft flies and test its sound emission.
The X-59 is scheduled to take flight this year. Once fully operational and tested, NASA plans to fly the aircraft over select U.S. cities in 2026 and gather feedback from the public on the sound it produces.
Rolls-Royce is investing £55m and recruiting more than 300 front-line staff, split between its operations in Derby, UK, and Dahlewitz, Germany. About two thirds of the jobs will be created in Derby.
Primary objectives for the flight test included accomplishing safe air-launch release of the TA-1 vehicle, engine ignition, acceleration, sustained climb in altitude, and a controlled water landing.
Testing will now cover the electric motors with their eight rotors as well as the aircraft's other systems such as flight controls and avionics.
Hartzell will retain the services of Jim Rust, former President of WhirlWind Propellers. Rust's technological expertise with rapid prototyping composite propeller systems further enhances Hartzell's existing capabilities.
Deutsche Aircraft has spread the manufacturing workload all around the world, appointing D328eco fuselage manufacturing partners in India and Brazil.
The establishment of Sky Works Inc., its manufacturing arm, and the partnership with Suzuki are significant steps towards producing up to 100 eVTOLs per year.
The facility supports end-to-end integration of fly-by-wire systems with avionics, electrical, hydraulic, flight controls, and mission and sensor systems for multiple current and future programs, manned and unmanned.
