Well, I was hoping to see F-35 engine construction, but got just a sales brochure instead.
Yeah it was. It's probably like an arms dealer convention.
ummm you don't think intelligence agencies don't watch RUclips? Of course they aren't going to show how an F-35 engine or plane is manufactured. Yeah we're just going to show our enemies exactly how to build it. That's really smart.
@@mikeburch2998 more like the follow on convention for maintenance and parts ordering.
that was indeed one strange video - all over the place
@@apedreus I
I used to work as an engineer for Pratt and Whitney on their military engines, particularly F100 (F16 engine), F119 (F22 Raptor engine) and some on F135 (F35 engine). Then went to Northrop Grumman and worked on missile propulsion systems. Now at 29 I took it a step further by now working at ULA as a propulsion engineer on rocket and space systems. The scale and power of everything in this field is just immense and amazing and glad to see the aerospace field continue to grow.
So, what are you doing for living?
@@user-cq6ln6ch8y I said it, propulsion engineer.
Bro, I'm currently undertaking diploma in aeronautical engineering, what's your best advice.
@@getthemoves2810 Get a decent GPA to get your foot in the door. Dont stay too long at your first job unless its one of the big aerospace companies, but even then dont stay more than 2 yrs at first job. Learn relevant areas of aerospace, like dont just get a first job in stress engineering, youll be stuck in that forever bc all your experience will be that.
@@odynith9356 thanks for the advice
Pratt and Whitney might not be the largest engine company but it has made a huge impact on aviation and history especially during wars.

Whar?
Been an A&P for 26 years
I was hoping to see the F35 engine build up testing and development ? So much for that glad I zoomed through the video !
US is very much behind the Russian thrust vector control engine. The engine technology in US is very poor compare to Russia.
As a proud technical writer for Service Bulletins for the PW800 program at Pratt & Whitney, I love watching these videos.
sir I need to order a f35 for my farm , where should I contact
@@abcdefgh-hz6pk Are you trying to blow up the field?

It's not just advanced processing, new materials or machines.
Pratt and Whitney's most important resource is it's PEOPLE.
Truly a testament to the achievement/advancement of mankind
This is just an eleven minute long commercial for Pratt and Whitney.
True - but it worked perfectly. I just placed an order for an F35.
Imagine having 5 times the thrust yet the same performance as the F-5.
Northrop gang representing!

Anyone catch the thunderbirds in the background on the shot of that F16. Kinda interesting they are actually performing this weekend (watched them today and will tomorrow) at Hill AFB.
PS. The Honda Jet has its engines above the wing. It is a very cool aircraft and fun to fly. Our charter company is looking into them. I’ll be happy to fly one even though I’m not really ever in anything that small. Except the Pilatus I suppose on certain missions. However, as you well know, they are very different aircraft.
Always amazed what humans are capable of building
But, still can't compete against aliens technology!!!!
@@bruceli853 true
came for f35 but all I see commercial
Cool sharing 👍♐
wow! the best of fantastic engineer
สวยฟังก์ชัน.ยอดมากๆครับ.
Laser projection @2:55? And you show 3D metal printing? Did I miss something?
Good to see Gus McGrath in the video - hello from Mark Strange (retired in 2011). :)
I used to work at Boeing in Everett. First time I saw the giant engines for 777's I was amazed. Main Fan is 9 feet in diameter. It wouldn't fit inside most homes.
Did you see the story about UAL flight 1175 capt Behnam?
Dude was flying a Triple 7 when one of the engines exploded over the ocean. That 9-foot diameter blade was windmilling but it was out of balance it was damn near shaking the airplane apart. He had to fly it like that for a couple hours. That story is a Real Testament to how well those Boeing Triple 7 Wings are Made.
@@jiveturkey9993 I couldn't even imagine that . . . . with that thing windmilling out of balance like that !!
even a little out of balance it would have been insanely scary no matter how many hours you got under your belt
@@jiveturkey9993 more than the wing, as the entire aircraft is being vibrated and flexed.
I'd love to see the containment for that fan though, that's a hell of a lot of energy to contain should the fan shatter! Most of it has to be flexible, as rigid would also simply fail. I'm willing to bet it's a derivation of the Whipple shield used for spacecraft, layered flexible barriers.
It is so amazing !I feel so couriers if it is posible for a ordinary people to visi t?
@@spvillano Thanks. Yes you are right, anything that big rotating at the rpm's it does, has lots of kinetic energy. Out of balance main fan would introduce harmonic vibrations that could lead to complete loss of engine. Worse case, shrapnel hits passenger compartment.
Large fan blades now being made out of composites. Older engines used Titanium, which is very expensive. Even composites can explode. There are several destructive tests engines have to pass. One about Containment, making sure the shroud liner (like bullet resistant vest) can withstand high energy impacts from fan blades.
The near future will see 3D printed blades made from metal alloys. It is possible to print very complicated passages inside blades for cooling, and for making blades lighter.

Magnifico video!!!!!!
25 years ago I worked for Raytheon on the Patriot missile control enclosures. yeah my stuff saw time in Desert Storm. But just to work on an F-35 engine ...Damn !!!
Very informative video. Turbines is an amazing machine.
I am a dispatcher for trucks and I have once booked a load going to Pratt and Whitney. My brother is a truck driver and he has delivered there and also picked up a load from there.
ok?
Lâu lắm rồi mới được nghe lại bài này. Hay lắm ạ 😘
Very good information
Brilliant indeed
Wonderful Prat & Whitney air craft engines production industry & wonderful heavy weapons payload B 52 bomber #👍👍
This engine sounds amazing in real life
Nothing to do with the F-35 is it . So I call BS
Share to Viet nam 👍👍👍🇻🇳🇺🇸🇻🇳🇺🇸🇻🇳🇺🇸
Awesome, love it!
Top 👍👍
Did anyone notice the main topic drifting away towards the end? From assembly line to engine placement.
The development of air engine systems engineering in the future depends how engine is powerful and if it does not have excessive mechanical mass and also does not consume a lot of energy source, then it is possible to create new ingenious systems for jet engines or how to compress the air inside the engines
I walk through the engine assembly floor every day as I work for PWA. It's a technology marvel. I have hands-on experience with engine components for the jet. Awesome stuff.
Have a happy merry Christmas and a happy new year my dear friends
Great video.
Хочу себе в собственность такой завод 👍
Nice
STOP POSTING STITCHED TOGETHER CLIPS WITH AWFUL COMMENTARY. NONE OF THIS FOOTAGE IS YOURS
GE brings good planes to life PW left us hanging
🌹 GOOD JOB FAIR
Cool, what apet of the process is done via 3d printers?
The engine VToL inclination adjustment, could also be very effective for rescue/cargo or even an airliner craft, in multiple sets, plus with extended chamber of a ramjet before, I front, become a supersonic convertion and VToL combo, even with enternal/exo rocket booster set, be a like a SSToL, only more 'SSR&VToL' ( *R* as Runway) *Orbitliner* space plane.
excellent job, sweetheart!
Aero space tech. are non-stop devoloping and raising departmant which many changing things we learning.
I still think Pratt and Whitney makes the best engines !!
I worked on the assembly floor in Middletown for a few years back when they were building JT8S and JT9s in the late 70s. Both my dad and older brother retired from there. Electronics and communications were my goals and I couldn’t do that there.
@@Chris_at_Home Hi I worked in the North Haven plant for two weeks then went back to driving a truck being inside wasn’t for me. My mom, step father and brother worked in the North Haven Plant as well. I have a few friends that work in both the Middletown and East Hartford plants. They sure did employ a lot of people back in the late 60 and 70s. The North Haven plant was demolished and now a giant Amazon warehouse sits on that site. Hope Alaska is being kind to you. Enjoy
@@scotsmanofnewengland7713 I hated being inside all the time also. I ended up doing communications work here in Alaska. Much of my work involved being flown around in many kinds of airplanes and helicopters. Sure beat working in a building with frosted windows about 20’ off the floor. My best friend growing up ended up being a big boss over a bunch of the engineering department. Sadly he died young right after retirement. I guess the stress of factory work does that to people.
I think whoever made the engines on the last jet I flew on makes the best engines.
US is very much behind the Russian thrust vector control engine. The engine technology in US is very poor compare to Russia.

If only they would release the alien/UFO technology we've had for decades.
Awesome.!.
I’m wondering if this remarkable engine can be retrofitted into the F16, B1B? Their fuselage or nacelles are big enough, without major mods. Especially for the F16, going from 27k lb thrust to 43k would be a serious leap in performance.
cool thought but the whole FADEC system would have to change too which would most definitely increase the empty weight of the aircraft.
@@SlapShot646 You have no F'n idea what FADEC means. Suggest you learn something first before replying and no, it would not increase empty weight but rather decrease it.
Regards: F16, certainly not. It is a MUCH longer engine and its dry thrust would nearly be F16's wet thrust. Now if the F16XL had been built.... Oh yea. B1B... why bother? But then again, KC135's and B52's have been reengined and are still flying so.... I mean Holy Crap B1B would be hitting Mach 2 without afterburners.
43k thrust is way too high for the F-16 even when loaded to the max. The 32k thrust of the latest available engine is more than enough. This isn’t drag racing. More powerful engines use more fuel. I think the engineers know what they are doing.
@@superskullmaster I’ve never heard about too much power. Especially with increased efficiency the the this turbofan engine gives. They used to say 500hp is way too much, you can’t use it. And yet 1000p cars are increasingly common.
Why don't you mention the EMBRAER airplanes, with tail engine?
❤❤ Customer service of products ❤❤
In short C17 can fly slow enough to perform similar to C130 tactical operation. Due to its power plant. With out PW pp most pp would cut out due to lack of intake of air.
To approach to the seen stars studying birds', insects' and stars' they had completed making the vehicles.
What does any of this have to do with F-35s?

Nah, you won’t. You don’t need it.
Took the words right out of my mouth.
They’re probably being replaced by GE motors by 2027, but they’ll probably ship these for foreign buyers
US is very much behind the Russian thrust vector control engine. The engine technology in US is very poor compare to Russia.
@@georgeoms8713 this isn’t about thrust vectoring, and the F35 does not have thrust vectoring. You don’t need thrust vectoring when you can get a radar lock from 800 miles away.
i thought the film was about the F35 engine assy' ?
Good video
Kaltstart?That's interesting.Why don't they use Coldstart instead?
와 엔진 겁나크네 ^^; 진짜 향후 50년간은 이 f-35 기체 따라올 나라는 없을꺼야 디자인 성능 모든면에서 완벽!! 굿굿 미국 최고~~

Yes My name is ဦးေက်ာ္လင္းသိုက္(ျမန္မာ)
The US should make one universal engine for everyone if it’s aircraft. If bombers and fighters can share the same engine, it would bring down the cost of manufacturing substantially and make it easier to mass produce.
Many engines share components, but each aircraft has different requirements so needs a different powerplant
Increase the ingine to Mach 3,4 so the jets fighters will fly faster than enemy's.
Install a long range radars as 300,400 miles so the pilots will see enemies first.
None of the planes featured are currently in production... so you're looking at replacement parts.
what do you mean? the f35 most definetly still is.
B52 has never been out of service.
... kind of just morphed into a random discussion on airplanes.. didn't it.
Good
A jet engine....A suck and push engine,,,,,So awesome

.... sweet ,big hugs 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗///.you can have a rainbow 🌈 too//.// so let check out some jet engines
The Navy never specify single engine aircraft...yet the F35 must have presented very high reliability data for a single engine.
The F135 engine is extremely reliable. In fact statistically, a 2 engine fighter today is LESS reliable than a single engine fighter. You have 2X the possible failure points on a twin engine aircraft, and anytime a large high performance fighter engine fails, it likely takes out the other engine as they are side by side, with lower safety margins than commercial engines.
@@_Coffee4Closers Single engine is for cost and weight savings. F-16 is single engine and F-35 is its replacement and F-22 replaces twin engine F-15. Both F-35 and F-22 use variants of the same engine, again to save money on spare parts inventory. Modern machining and inspection technology has vastly improved reliability in everything from cars to planes. Aside from wire chaffing issues early on, the F-16 was remarkably reliable. If F-35 isn't, it wont be mechanical it will be electronic or avionics...
US is very much behind the Russian thrust vector control engine. The engine technology in US is very poor compare to Russia.
@@georgeoms8713 LOL... you are totally clueless. The US mastered 3D thrust Vectoring back in the 1970's and 80's with the VISTA program. Where do you get your silly ideas from? Also the US is over a decade ahead of Russian Turbine Engine Technology. The Russians can not drill 10 mil cooling holes in turbine blades, the Russians can't produce the high temperature alloys, the Russians have never even attempted carbon matrix shrouds in turbine hot sections for weight reduction. For God sake they can not even produce an engine capable to power the SU57 with super-cruise capability. As far as thrust vectoring the US uses it on the F22 in the Vertical plane, where it matters while maintaining rear aspect stealth. Meanwhile the Russian's used 3D vectoring (totally unnecessary in the horizontal axis) with a "turkey feather" nozzle, giving up any hope of rear aspect stealth. US engines for fighters have thousands of pounds more thrust, less weight, and 10 times the life-cycle of Russian military engines.
You trolls are so funny, with your make-believe posts of amazing Russian tech.
