at least 40 years of service life for most air forces, with no expected extended structural repairs throughout that entire lifetime. The conformal fuel tanks provide increased fuel and added range, without sacrificing the aerodynamic performance of the jet, along with an improved performance engine...
Engine testing in a single engine, jet aircraft is fraught with many risks. This paper will detail lessons that were learned before the aircraft left the chocks for first flight. A series of unexpected events occurred during pre taxi that simultaneously uncovered major flaws in both the test ...
目前世界推重比超过10的一级涡扇发动机系列只有美国的F119和F135系列以及俄罗斯AL-41系列正式投入使用。欧洲喷气公司(Eurojet)的EJ200涡扇发动机、法国国营航空发动机研究制造公司的M88-2涡扇发动机的推重比均不超过9,而俄罗斯最先进的由土星设计局研制生产的AL-41F推重比虽然超过10,却以牺牲零件寿命为代价,运行寿命仅约4...
A fire in the plane's engine broke out as soon as the F-16 jet took off from the Misawa Airbase in Aomori Prefecture early on Tuesday. The plane was forced to dump its two external fuel tanks in a nearby lake, with the tanks splashing down between 200-400 meters from where fishing ...
According to the company, the new production line will begin manufacturing the newest F-16 production configuration called "Block 70." The F-16, commonly known as "Fighting Falcon", is a single engine jet fighter widely used by the United States and countries across the globe, and can carry...
There are several reasons Kyiv campaigned specifically for the F-16, alow-cost but capable single-engine jet fighterthat entered service more than 40 years ago. (Note: Ukraine hasn’t lobbied for U.S. stealth fighters, or cutting-edge non-stealth jets.) The F-16 is less expensive t...
One of the few known techniques is jet-engine modulation, which involves analyzing the raw radar return for the characteristic beat produced by a combination of the radar-pulse frequency and the rotating blades of the engine. This technique is already used on operational radars (including the APG...

F-16s are single-engine, multirole jet aircraft, meaning they can be used in air-to-air or ground-attack missions. The US Air Force calls the F-16, which first flew in the 1970s, a “relatively low-cost, high-performance weapon system.” Thousands of the jets have been built over...
