The world's top engines
The Russian NK32 engine, mainly developed as the engine of the Tu 160 strategic bomber, the Tu 160 bomber is currently Russia's most deterrent long-range strategic bomber, which can achieve supersonic flight, a total of 35 aircraft were built, basically built in the former Soviet Union, the aircraft's maximum flight speed of Mach 2.05, using four single 25 tons of thrust NK32 The maximum speed of this aircraft reaches Mach 2.05, with four single 25-ton thrust NK32 turbofan engines, it can fly at 21,000 meters, with a maximum takeoff weight of 110 tons and a range of up to 16,000 kilometers, with a combat radius of more than 8,000 kilometers, and its long-range strike capability will be further enhanced if aerial refueling is carried out.
Figure 160 is currently the world's largest bomber, while equipped with the world's most powerful aero-engine thrust, its speed is 50% faster than the U.S. B1B, the range of 45% more than the B1B, the bomber performance of the global attention, but its core is this NK32 engine, before Russia wanted to restart the Tu 160 bomber production line, but made a mess, because after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, a lot of information lost, Tu 160 drawings lost a lot, so there is no way to produce.
We all know that Russia is an aviation industry powerhouse, at least in terms of aero-engine technology to be ahead of China and on par with the United States, but Russia is unable to re-produce this large thrust engine even in the absence of drawings, so you can imagine how technically difficult this engine is, and the most appropriate way to describe the NK32 is to use the human aero-engine technology ceiling, and finally resumed production work on the bomber only after Kuznetsov announced that it had suddenly found part of the lost NK32 technical drawings.
The use of four NK32 engines, pushing a bomber weighing hundreds of tons, and the fastest speed can reach Mach 2.05, so much so that you want to catch up with the bomber, must be a fourth-generation fighter with supersonic cruise capability, aero engines are a type of gas turbine, belonging to the gas turbine turbine type, we all know that the more power you want to make the engine, then the internal temperature of the engine should be greater, in To ensure that the internal combustion temperature of the engine is large at the same time, but also to ensure that the internal parts will not be high temperature melting, is a super difficult project. So many countries in the field of aircraft engines can not make a breakthrough, and can not ensure that the engine internal long-term high temperature has a great relationship, so much so that some Russian officials said that 30 years will not consider exporting this engine, if the engine technology leaks, then the country will be able to get technology, rapid progress in the field of aircraft engines, aircraft engine industry can drive the development of many industries, so there Promote the important role of social and economic development, so it is a major national weapon, is not easily given.
