๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐น๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐๐:โค ๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ผ๐ and ๐๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ผ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ successfully ignited the ๐๐๐๐ด๐ฌ๐ฌ turbofan engine.โค ๐๐๐๐ด๐ฌ๐ฌ Serial Number 1 successfully tested at the ๐ซ-๐ฑ๐ด facility.โค Successful ignition launches a new ๐๐๐๐ด๐ฌ๐ฌ testing campaign.โค Program achieved a ๐ญ๐ฌ๐ฌ% success rate for this development phase.โค GEK800 was recently designated the ๐๐ญ๐ฐ๐ฏ engine.โค Engine targets long-range, stand-off ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐บ๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐ฒ strike capabilities.โค Kratos says the program remains ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐น๐ฒ following successful testing.โค Companies are preparing GEK800 for ๐น๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ด๐ฒ-๐๐ผ๐น๐๐บ๐ฒ production.โค Program targets high performance alongside lower ๐น๐ถ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐๐ฐ๐น๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐๐๐.๐ ๐ช๐ต๐ ๐ง๐ต๐ถ๐ ๐ ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐:โค Successful ignition reduces a key technical risk before further engine testing.โค Advances Kratos and GE's push toward scalable ๐ฐ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐๐ฒ ๐บ๐ถ๐๐๐ถ๐น๐ฒ propulsion.โค Large-volume production could expand Kratos' role in ๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ณ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ฒ propulsion programs.โค Lower-cost engines could support greater deployment of ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ strike systems.๐ ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐:๐๐ต๐ฟ๐ถ๐ ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด๐, Vice President of Kratosโ Defense Engine Portfolio:โThe combined Kratos, GE Aerospace, and Government test team has demonstrated exceptional focus, discipline, and schedule execution. This team sets the benchmark for operational efficiency and provides a refreshing reminder that our nation can develop turbine engines affordably and at pace.โ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ด๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐, General Manager of Edison Works Advanced Combat Engines at GE Aerospace:โWith this latest milestone, the GEK800 engine continues to demonstrate strong performance and durability. Our collaboration with Kratos is delivering a highly capable propulsion system designed to meet the demanding requirements of cruise missile applications.โ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฅ๐ผ๐ฐ๐ธ, President of Kratosโ Turbine Technologies Division:โKratos continues to achieve milestones and accelerate program schedules as we prepare for large volume production of our GEK800 engine to support advanced cruise missile systems.โ
FeaturedThe Return of DC: AI Is Reopening the War Edison Lost
An AI rack now eats as much power as a small factory, and the copper needed to feed it would fill the cabinet before a single GPU goes in. NVIDIA's answer is 800V direct current, and it could redesign and reprice every component from the transformer to the inductor.
