PD-14 - the main engine of Russia
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 дек 2021
- The PD-14 (Prospective Engine with 14 tf thrust) is the base engine of a family of promising Russian civilian turbojet aircraft engines, developed by the United Engine Corporation (UEC) for the MC-21 family of airliners.
The PD-14 is the most advanced engine created in Russia and claims its rightful place among the most advanced civil aviation power plants in the world. Belonging to the 5th generation, it has incorporated all the latest technologies, solutions and materials available at the moment, which already at the stage of creation gave a huge leap forward to the entire Russian engine building industry: from science and development to testing and production.
Thanks to the knowledge and technology gained in the creation of this motor, the industry has the opportunity to create other advanced engines of different classes. Several major projects are already underway, from the small PD-8 to the super-powerful PD-35, which is being developed for heavy transports and long-haul airliners.
In today's story we will take a closer look at the PD-14, learn how the creators managed to achieve the high performance of the engine, how it was developed, how it was produced and due to what advantages will it be able to successfully compete in one of the most technologically complex and competitive markets in the world.

Today we'll meet the Russian competitor of the P&W1100G and CFM LEAP. Hope, you'll like the story)
It was awesome. Well put together and I love the storytelling flair that you naturally bring to the table.
Good video with enough info. Thank you for this work!
Please do NK-93 at some point!
Nothing special, nobody outside of Russian wants it.
@@drinksnapple8997 pure speculation from you. If the engine and the plane finally are good ? Don’t forget that it is only a fraction of Boeing 737 max and A 320 Neo price. So, maybe some low cost carriers from the western world are going to be interested if at the end the real cost per pax is really good and international network for maintenance is built (not tomorrow anyway).
For someone who has waited for so long (Russian engine), honestly and admirably thanks you.
Я русский инженер. Не думаю, что мы сможем сделать такие хорошие лопатки из композита, как у США. Но думаю, что лопатки из титана - это совсем неплохая альтернатива. Это моё, сугубо индивидуальное мнение...
Thank you for this video. This is the best non-academic explaination about a commercial jet engine I've come across. Congratulations to Russia and to you.
Russia has long history working with titanium, like making whole submarines out of it.
Frankly it is refreshing to hear a Russian being proud of native designs as Russians in general are very self deprecating and tend to berate themselves. That or you get the "invented in RUSSIA!" types. Hell I even like those types more than the ones who berate their own people and their abilities.
One of the few good things about the interwebs is that it gives the ability to cut through propaganda and horseshit from all sides if you are willing to put a bit of effort. Good work!
I'm from Russia! Nice to read an intelligent person!
This video sure did eliminate my doubts about Russian engineering. I have a USAF background and we often found Russian fighter jets crude, (nevertheless effective!) especially in the earlier combat aircraft. Clearly, Russia has made great progress in that regard. The video shows the engines are truly a piece of fine art. Please keep these great videos coming. This one was one of the best I have seen.
One critical thing I love about this video is not shying away from the weakness of the engines.
What aspects of the fighters are crude? I dont know too much abt this, The cruder parts (when compared to american jets) would be mainlt electronics, right?
@@fredmdea785 Don't get me wrong, Russian fighters are also state of the art machines. There is a general understanding that the west build high tech fighters, while the east builds less high tech but tough and tanky fighters.
For a long time, Soviet and US have been in a arms race. While US was modernizing their fighters, bombers, transports, Soviet collapsed, which halted many advancements. Even before the collapse, Soviet was in debt Nd hungry, if you look at their access to Fox 3 missiles, US have way better avionics and AMRAAMs, compared to the Russian jet at the time, mostly using R-27ER Fox 1 missiles.
It was the soviets who were crude but not today’s Russia They want to make products that will b universally accepted on the international market unlike the soviets who made substandard products to keep up appearances of progress
@@cheshireghost299
While modern Russia has managed to finally make some great achievement after awful 15 years of degradation, you can't separate Russian and Soviet sophisticated industry - it's a one country after all.
Do your research and you will find a lot of Hi-Tech stuff soviets built.
I watched the whole video. Thank you. Russian aeronautics is rising up again
The best explanation of a commercial jet engine I have seen.
THIS IS A VERY GOOD DOCUMENTARY WORTH WATCHING ..As a Engineer it was fascinating to discover the work methodology of this Russian JET engine factory. For those who may not be familiar, working with titanium is extremely difficult because the metal is very hard and difficult to machine but it does have other desirable qualities: For example LIGHTNEES AND STRENGTH and it can be anodised which surely would help in its battle with corrosion ... which is, perhaps, the reason it can handle volcanic emissions!
Putting politics on one side, the West should consider purchasing the MC21 with this engine. as It does look as though it's a real bargain. And if airlines do Airbus will have to reduce its prices which will mean lower prices for passenger end users. ALL GOOD!
I really appreciated the honesty ... like fuel economy but I'm sure that that parameter will improve in stages and within a few years this engine will be on par with anything seen in the West. ANYWAY GOOD LUCK AND MAY GOD BLESS ALL THE HARD WORKING ENGINEERS., (AND EVERYONE ELSE), working at this factory.. GREAT TEAM!
Are you JOKING? Competing with the Western manufacturers? That'll be the day!😂🇨🇳☢️🇳🇱
@@JDAbelRN Well, ... the US have bought Russian Rocket Engines in the past recognising those Engines to be superior .... so why not Jet Engines, given a little time? I dare say you won't be convinced and to that I can only say that engineering progress is essentially a function of innovation ... and if you believe that Russian Engineers lack inventiveness then you are sadly mistaken.
@@camiemengineer I am not saying at all that Russia has less talented engineers, technicians, designers or machinists. My main point is that they are so behind in the overall technology of jet engine manufacturing, that it may be decades until Russia actually catches up with and produces significant quantities to compete with General Electric, Pratt and Whitney, Rolls Royce, SCM. Why would the West or China buy Russian engines when they have so many choices readily available on the SHELF and new, more, efficient engines on the way? Actually, it would be better if Russia concentrates all their engineering and design talent to totally new aero jet design, and purchase ready made and reliable engines from the companies listed above.
@@JDAbelRN hmmmm...SELF RELIANCE?
@@JDAbelRNthey were not allowed to purchase them due sanctions. They are behind but atleast their industry is not dead. Time will tell if they succeed.
Ok, I'm sold. Definitely want to take a flight on one of these planes.
Right now, only GE (and CFM) are making use of carbon fiber epoxy to make fan blades. Rolls Royce and Pratt&Whitney are still using metal alloys. The Aviadvigatel's PD-14 isn't at any particularly big disadvantage there.
The geared turbo fan pratt family uses some composites
Carbon fiber blades are a must for ridiculously high bypass ratio engines. PD-14 has a moderate flow and will not benefit from carbon blades.
But RR will finally take the plunge with composite fan blades with its latest engine in development,the Ultrafan, which will be the world's largest fan blades!
@@eyeofthetiger6002 Yes, Ultrafan (which also uses CMCs) should perform its first test run this year. And Aviadviagtel's PD-35 - also with composite fan blades and ceramic matrix composites - will have its first test run in 2023. Pratt&Whitney will probably choose to integrate CMCs before a composite fan. And they haven't made any schedule for introducing either technology.
Ti makes sense, especially as many derivatives and variants will likely be used in industry, ships, and maybe helicopters and armored vehicles, where bypass is unimportant.
Skyships,
Very good presentation, thank you for your effort.
As a retired engineer, I greatly appreciated the design choices made with this engine, a good balance of practicality and efficiency.
It looks like Airbus and Boeing will soon have serious competition in this airliner size. The Chinese are pushing to develop competitive airliners. Let’s hope Russian industry fills this role and not China. Good luck.
Nah, they do not play fairly. MC-21 had denied EU certification in march 2022. So basically unsaleable outside Russia and CIS. Reason is obvious and it is not technical one.
Same fate for C-919 did not get certificate in USA because "espionage" allegations. Taking into consideration, that C-919 was designed to compete for huge american domestic market (thus its relatively low flight range), it will sell only in China and some friendly countries in Asia.
So do not worry, Airbus and Boeing have assured protection from any competition.
@@tomascernak6112 Mostly they doing this for inside flights, was listening to Putin other day saying Russia is big, from one end to another end you will fly 10 hours, and they wanna kick Airbus and Boeing out from there market first, and than possibly just like you said selling few to Asian markets.
@@jafarhon Yes, now they will use it that way, but this airplane was not designed yesterday, it was awaiting EU certification since 2019 so it could compete in Euroasian market.
Also, airplane which can not fly over USA and their vassals (which include EU), is problematic even for internal market, because time to time you want to fly atleast over airspace of these countries. Also it is a mayor blow to Aeroflot, which was trying to restore their dominance from cold war.
Russian civil aerospace industry get major blow and it will probably kill that industry altogether.
@@tomascernak6112 You and i know that Russians can build a plane out of a gold but west and EU will always block that, they dont want competition.
@@jafarhon Exactly. And it has nothing to do with current war in Ukraine. It was same with Sputnik vaccine approval. There was no war, and Russia had vaccine first, it was safer because was not mRNA and was able to produce it large quantities. Yet EU and our overlord USA did not want competition for their pharmaceutic companies.
Once again, I'm really impressed. Russian engineering at its finest 👌
@@flightforensics4523 what is wrong with the ssj except western propaganda which state everything from the east is bad only western aircraft is good.
@@flightforensics4523 I think you wanted to say Boeing 737 Max
West better
Cam Blaxx: better be, as they have a shit ton more experience and funding.
Rich Storr incorrect. The parent company that developed this engine got their know how from the ps-90 engine family
Nice video about PD-14 main engine for aviation action produced by Russia 🇷🇺 👌 👍 👏👏👏👏
Wow. This a serious engine. Congratulations
Today, 28.12.2021 MC-21 with PW-1000 was fully certified. We are waiting its certification with PD-14!
Great to see Russia pursuing it`s own small jet to compete with A320/B737, plus this development of a home-grown engine which looks terrific. I think they are correct not to go to technical extremes, rather concentrate on what they can do relatively easily & perhaps ease into more cutting edge techniques ( geared fans & carbon blades ) with further experience. I wish these engineers & others concerned good fortune & look forward to seeing MC-21 being exported around the globe.
Ha Ha Ha, where the Russian want to go, Airbus comes from. MC-21 is in development since more than 10 years and production is still not up. I doubt that this PD-14 is outperforming the western engines.
@@stephanbode548 you dont need to outperform, you need to outprice it to counqer the market. now sit down, the test is failed
@@maximus7809 Yeah.... so Russia already tried that with the Sukhoi SSJ100. That failed miserably and the non Russian airlines who had it have already gotten rid of them and deemed the plane a failure. Russian civil aviation is dead at this point.
@@RandomMichiganGuy and you dont know why that happened to SSJ100 of course. French part of the engine was 1000hours resource instead of declared 8000 hours.
And they could not make parts in required amount to fix thos engines. So compaines were using 2-4 of 20 planes and keeping other for parts.
Thats why now we make our own engines without "partners"
@@maximus7809 good explanation .I love Russian engineers' straight forward and critical thinking.We used to compare a mig 21 and f5 and marvel at the simplicity and yet superbness of the 21 against the f5
I love the charm of the Russian presentation. The grammatical and syntactic errors, and the interesting Russian colloquialism translations are often rather cute. I am wondering if the guy in the videos is the same guy doing the narration? I think not, as I suspect he would actually speak in English to the camera if he could. It is great to get a different perspective on the aircraft industry and aviation history as a whole, separate from US self-aggrandizement or UK nostalgia for better days gone by. Nobody in the US would ever talk about the Russian (Soviet) industry in a positive way, let alone with so much detail. You have opened up a whole new world for me. Keep up the good work and do not change anything!
Logically. Praising enemies and telling the truth is not about the USA. To lie, pervert and belittle it is always. I often watch American documentaries about production, they are interesting, but there is too much "patriotism". I am very glad that you are one of those who sees the facts and not the political subtext.
@@infarctinsult2654 People are people everywhere. Political systems are temporary. Sky has, so far, not been political in any way. I do not blame him for Putin's actions, and am very happy to see him still posting.
Yes, he has a Russian channel Skyships, and translations just come out on this channel
I suppose I should check out the Russian channel to compare the voices. I recall being surprised that Slivki did not narrate his English channel.
This engine makes perfect sense for a country which is self-sufficient in, indeed a major exporter of, hydrocarbons. Any slight efficiency penalty is more than offset by acquisition cost, and more importantly strategic, considerations. Well done Russia.
that only makes sense as far as the engines are _used_ in Russia. And it assumes that maximum profits are not as important to Russian airline companies as any other. Even if Russian airlines can get fuel more cheaply than other airlines (and can they?), that doesn't mean they wouldn't prefer to use the lowest amount possible. But more importantly, I doubt they produced this engine only for use by Russian airlines, I am sure they hope very, very much to sell it all over the world, and you can't sell your engines to Ethiopian Airlines on the sales pitch that fuel is really cheap in Russia, so it's okay that fuel consumption is high.
You _can_ probably do it by offering them for significantly lower initial cost, in spite of the added fuel costs later. and I would think that they hope to improve the fuel burn over time as well.
@@justforever96 But from what I understand the fuel consumption is not high and very much comparable to western counterparts.
@@justforever96 This engine can be used anywhere in the world!
this ecnagine will be great ot carry war criminals to camps in siberia. great job russia. PS russia is not self-suficient. BY far not
@@justforever96 Fuel is not so expensive in aircraft TCO. For example, MC-21 has 20 tons of fuel, which is roughly 20 000 dollars on European/american market (2/3 of that in russia). This translates into 7000 km range (it is 6400 with landing reserve). This equals to 10 hours in air which correspond with average usage of airliner 11 hours per day.
So per year such airplane consume fuel for 7,3 million USD in EU/USA market or 5 million USD in CIS market. So it take 10/15 years of flying to spent fuel cost equal to MC-21 purchase price not counting maintenance which would be probably more expensive, than airliner itself during that time.
And now we can calculate difference between this engine and one of super-high bypass ratio from west. Cruise TSFC of PD-14 is 15g/kN/s. PW 1100 on A320Neo has allegedly 13g/kN/s. So 15% better consumption. Which means 1 million USD per year in EU/USA market. Taking into consideration, that MC-21 cost 72 million USD meanwhile A320 cost 110 million (maybe more, it is 2018 price), fuel economy would return initial cost after 38 years!!! Long after that airplane would be scrapped.
Fact, that fuel economy is not so important is also supported by fact, that Airbus is offering its A320Neo also with LEAP engines, which has allegedly TSCF in cruise 14g/kN/s, 7,5% worse than PW1100 and yet, customers are buying both variant, probably based on maintenance cost in their area of operation.
Much bigger problem for MC-21, PD-14 and whole Russian air industry is, that EU denied certification for MC-21 last year for political reasons. So fuel economy is totally unimportant, when politics is melded into business. Russia can develop hypersonic antigravity UFO and offer it for 1 dollar and still will be unable to sell single unit of that IF USA and its vassals (EU, NATO, Japan, Australia...) decide to not allow them fly in their airspace.
Great documentary, I learned a lot. Looking forward to the future of Russian Jet manufacturing.
Brilliant, I really enjoyed this, love Russian engineering and hope this engine is a great success.
Too early to comment. They haven't been tested for reliability and economy in real commercial situations. Any way the Russian authoritarian administration can spend as much money on these kinds of projects while squeezing ordinary Russian citizens of their lively hood and standard of living, and no one in the Russian authoritarian regime is going to be questioned or held accountable.

Legit the first plane/engine combination from Russia I'd consider flying regularly. Looks good.
You won't be flying in any Russian jets anytime soon but Russia , Oh it will be decades before any Russian passenger jets will be certified. Even the stolen Boeing and Airbus jets will be grounded as they slowly run out of parts.Welcome to Putins Russia.
Being involved with the development of many R-R aero engine types for over 40 years I found your video very interesting. Thanks, and keep the good work. 👍🏼
being 'merican and pedantic, i believe this is by most referred to as a turbofan. you pointed out its competitors had troubles and showed images of the cs110/a220 and its pw1500g which have not have more issues than any other evolutions and less than many others. also when talking about the size you showed a clip of an a330(?) with its large trent (7000?) which has blades grown as a single crystal but are metal and not composite and are huge! an incredible achievement from RR, i wish i could see more stuff from russia in the states! thank you sky for sharing, they can grow the bypass in the future, many others have done this through their variants/iterations
Very good and well informed video. Being blacklisted from US, Russian commercial aviation was pushed by western nations to creates it own engine and composite wings from scratch for they long awaiting MC 21. Now we have to see if their production can be equal or better than PW or CFM. A huge challenge by Russians and a potential competitor ???
A very strange blacklist as PW engines are still being sold to Russia without restrictions. The Russian composite wing is indeed the result of US sanctions but the work on PD-14 engines was started long before that.
@@cianakril hello, have you heard about protectionism? It isn't done blocking market for your own companies
Composite wing is by design, all that sanctions did was delay in manufacturing by approximately 18 months, until Russians Kick-started their own composite production and manufacturing.
Who cares about what they say
Russians are brilliant people they made legendary engineering marvelously cool stuff in the ussr era and it helped pushing the engineering work and they are coming back
People say they are pushed and the nation is agressive and shit
I don't care all i see is how russian make reliable and cheap and easy to maintain mechanical stuff

@@cianakril yeah
Do the PW geared turbofan next. I always find the engines fascinating, working on industrial turbines all my life. Great content and pretty thorough research which shows in the narrative. Keep it up.
This is becoming my new favorite channel.
Can't wait for the Izdeliye 30
This is a really in depth video regarding a turbofan engine development, and even beyond.
Engine development is the hardest thing to pull off even though it may look quite easy yo achieve.
To achieve this 100% within Russia is amazing, considering that it can't be crippled by sanctions from USA which can happen anytime.
The main issue Russia always had is after sales support. Hopefully that also has been overhauled like the entire manufacturing process.
they used designs from major airliners and called it their own

More impressive technology created by Russia. Many people say that Russia is bad at making things but the reality is that Russia is a world leader with many things - titanium being one such thing.
It's good to see a country coming together to create this new engine system. It will have many bonus things such as the new gas transmission power plants as shown near the end of the video.
Well done everyone!

Bad we’ll see this plane out of Russia not very soon
Fantastic documentary on this wonderful engine, and aircraft!
In 2006, an agreement was signed on the creation of a new engine, which was named PD-14 (a promising engine with a thrust of 14 tons).
PD-14 is a fifth generation turbofan engine developed for MC-21-300 aircraft, PD-14A for MC-21-200, PD-14M for MC-21-400. PD-8 engine will be installed on the Be-200, AN-148 and Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft. Therefore, the designers and engineers were faced with the task of creating a unified gas generator, which is the main element of the engine.
16 new technologies were developed for PD-14 by russian designers, engineers and scientists, namely - single-crystal blades for a high-pressure turbine with an advanced cooling system that allows the turbine to operate at temperatures up to 2000 ° K.; hollow wide fan blade made of titanium alloy, thanks to which it was possible to increase the efficiency of the fan stage by 5% in comparison with the fourth-generation turbofan engine PS-90 produced in the USSR in the late 1980s; low-emission combustion chamber made of intermetallic alloy; sound-absorbing structures made of composite materials; ceramic coatings on hot parts; hollow blades of a low-pressure turbine, etc.
20 new materials were created for PD-14 with indisputable advantages: a decrease in specific fuel consumption by 10-15%, a reduction in the life cycle cost by 15-20%; operation of the engine will cost 14-17% cheaper than existing analogues. All of them have been certified according to international standards.
New Russian titanium and nickel alloys are used to create the engine. The engine nacelle design consists of 65% of domestic polymer composites, which achieves the required level of sound insulation and reduces engine weight.
The technologies used in the production of PD-14 are state secrets and are protected. Therefore, information on PD-14 is largely classified. Example: China would gladly copy production technologies, by analogy with the Su-27. They copied the plane, but they failed to replicate AL-31F engine.
The PD-14 project, in addition to creating the engine itself, includes the most important element - the provision of after-sales service. A large amount of work is planned in this area: the creation of a support center with round-the-clock work 365 days a year, the opening of a network of field offices, engine service stations, ensuring the replacement of modules in operation. It is expected that this all together should increase the foreign prospects of the new Russian engine.
The state's ability to produce cooled cast blades for a modern turbine aircraft engine is an indicator of the highest level of development in mechanical engineering. There are fewer states capable of producing fifth generation aircraft turbojet engines than countries with nuclear weapons or those that launch satellites into space. Only four countries - Great Britain, Russia, USA and France - possess full-cycle technologies for creating engines.
Japan also has the capability to produce jet engines. They did with their P1 and other military and commercial jets like business jet engines. But sure, their capacity is not the same as that of the US or Russia.

If you continue studying history, now last decades, you will learn USSR collapsed (dissolved itself into 12 republics) and a new NON COMMUNIST Russia emerged, very weak at the beginning, but now again a powerful and RESPECTFUL country which abide to ALL its signatures in Treaties like the Minsk Protocols (2014), or the ICBM with the US, which in line with its lack of moral principles, abandon signed treaties just when they do not suit them...

Сейчас там всё тоже самое что и здесь: одноразовые вещи, с шильдой "сделано в КНДР", под знаками бывших премиум-марок. Здешние близоручки все бредят мыслями, что "могучие штаты нас завоёвывают с разных сторон", в то время, когда у них там уже давно у самих гражданская война, в локальных масштабах (осветить которую для них равносильно сдаче в плен, любому из желающих)
Словом, не там мы вражину ищем, и не оттуда черпаем надежды. Нас *всех* имеет, даже не третья, а уже пятая сторона.
Anyone who has worked with Russian engineers around the world will concur.
👍
Outstanding. This video is one of your finest yet. Thoroughly enjoyed this. 👏
Engines are much harder to develop than aircraft. A good engine then powers many different models, typically.
For historical references, look at aircraft powered by the piston Pratt and Whitney R2800 and GE J-57 turbojet. The R2800 powered the Grumman Hellcat, Republic Thunderbolt, Vought Corsair, Curtiss Commando, Northrop Black Widow, and Martin Marauder among others.
J57 was an amazing engine! Pure small diameter turbojet...none of this fan business and with water injection.....simply stunning to see and hear!
Oops, Pratt & Whitney, not GE, J57 powered the B-52, Boeing 707, Douglas DC-8, F-100, F-101, F-102, U-2, Martin Canberra, and other aircraft.
The GE engine on my mind was the very popular J79 used in the B-58 Hustler, F-4 Phantom II, F-104. F-16, among others.
There are not so many countries in the world that have competence in engine building. I can only cite as an example - the USA (GE, P&W), Great Britain (Rolls Royce), Russia (Saturn, ODK), France (Safran). China will be on this list in 10 years, but they still have a lot to learn.
Excellent,! I used to work at IAE (International Aero Engines AG), maker of the V2500 series turbofans. The engineers told me all I needed to know about how a jet engine works is “suck, squeeze, bang, blow.” Very fine video.
What about IAE now? Liquidated?? There are no GE competitor for LEAP and PW gear put it up instead.
@@alexlo7708 IAE was a partnership including, among the others, Pratt & Whitney And Rolls-Royce. Rolls-Royce sold its shares of this partnership about 10 years ago (even if they continued assembling v2500 engines in the Rolls Royce facility in Germany for several more years) and did not design either independently or in partnership new engines of this class and thrust rate, so until now for the new generation engines of this class there was only Pratt & withney and CFM (GE and Snecma partnership)
@cc, if that’s the case there would be a lot females who would be experts in jet engines, I mean, take your Mrs for example.
Depends on what your job is at the engine factory. But, no, it is not crucial for the guy bolting the head of a small block V8 on to understand how it actually works. Interestingly, suck-squeeze-bang-blow is more typically associated with 4-stroke piston engines, although it is is also perfectly accurate for turbine engines, with the exception that instead of describing the 4 strokes of the piston, it describes the different sections of the engine as you move aft. Although I personally never found it very difficult to understand either piston engines or turbine engines. I don't understand why people seem to consider them so mysterious.
Top notch video! How do you get into so much detail and make it understandable as well? It's a gift...
In Russia we say simplicity is the sister of talent..
I guess this guy is really talented 🤷♂️
Thanks for an interesting overview that didn't rely on company advertising hype, nationalism and propaganda to show that the engine is a good product and that the engineers, universities and supply chain made great improvements in their technical capacity.
I'm very excited to see the potential for these to make their way onto foreign operators.
It’s unlikely in any real significant numbers, since it seems pretty much all of this engine manufacture and supply is indigenous to Russia. This means issues for foreign users in supply of parts and repairs. Too limited.
I doubt you'll see that until more countries begin designing and building airliners. Turf wars and all. GE, RR, and P&W will guard their market.
@@MB-nn3jw Most likely former soviet republics maybe China or Southeast Asia
Looks great, finest engineering. One more international quality product of Russian aero engine technology. Very impressive, in spite of sensless unjustified sanctions.
Unjustified? What planet you living on? Russia will suffer and fall behind for decades due to their aggression to Ukraine.
Great explanation of all this engine building area, thanks!
I like to see this nation getting back into engine development. After all, it used to be in the forefront in this field. And given time it sure might become again.
However route of lower bypass designers took is slightly disappointing. I understand the conservative approach at this time, but still hope for bit more experimental approach.
And its not like this nation doesn't have some rough gems laying dormant.
Best of luck i guess.
LEAP is little less bypass to PW gear. But LEAP has less gear parts to PW.
The PD is similar to LEAP. Just different in that it cannot reach the same compression ratio to GE LEAP. Likely cause from lower material in turbine blade.
@Alfred Weber nobody cares.
It's out of necessity not choice as Russia is under international sanctions at the moment so no more Pratt & Whitney engines for the MC-21.🤣
@@eyeofthetiger6002 Russia is under Anglo sanction,not international sanction. By the way, all jet engines are monopolized by the Anglo. However Russian has historical of manufacturing on jet engines since the Soviet era.
@@alexlo7708 that may be so, but the other countries involved in the aviation high tech sectors like France, Germany, Sweden, Taiwan,Japan,South Korea, etc have all voluntarily withdrawn from the Russian market for fear of US sanctions against them!🤣The engines are only part of the aircraft,as you also need the software and the other high tech bits to make it efficient,safe and reliable.
Now a fan with woven carbon fiber is being developed for the new engine ... Since the PD-35 stand (but there is already a gas generator), large-scale models of the new fan are being tested at the PD-14 stand ... so it is likely that a carbon fiber fan will appear on the PD -14 in the near future ...
I love how he compliments the workers and engineers of these objects. He sounds so proud no matter what country or company it is. We need more international-oriented thinking like this.
Nice video 👍,Please make a video on the MiG 21
Well done Russia! The achievements of Russian technology are positive for world progress!
Thanks for the interesting video from Rome.
Sky properly pronouncing "Eyjafjallajökull" is the icing in this двигател cake. Excited to see new engine models from other countries too, to make the market even more diverse for customers. Naturally the next challenge for OAK and ODK is long-term and after-sales support. Thankfully they could probably look at how their Chinese counterparts and fareing on this, and perhaps improve on the matter.
is j pronounced like y?

@@studiosnch Oh its the ll that is weird. But it's just like an African click it's not that hard at all!
we need the PD18 as well asap. Then the old PS90A series of engines can be replaced. This is needed for the il-78, il-78, tu-204, tu-214, il-96 etc etc. Great video, information not found elsewhere in the west :)
Mom ok no I
I read the PD-8 has completed its 1st and 2nd core testing, with bench test to follow in 2022. Certification is planned for 2023.
PD-35
Good to have more competition! Great video on the engine!
It is wonderful to see and I hope the effort succeeds brilliantly. Already Russian aviation technology is reclaiming the position it should have had since the 90s.
If the Soviet Union didn’t collapse Russias domestic market would be competing with the west.
A great job, Mr. Skyships. I really enjoy your videos. Merry Christmas
Titanium blades are stronger, and Russia has the resources to use it without any dramas.
Russian kit's always impressive 👍
Sky always produces highly professional aviation documentaries! Thank you.
For the MC-21 to succeed, UAC has to build a robust support mechanism to prop up the launch customers. Start out regionally like in Asia, move to Africa & Latin America and the rest will follow. The developing markets need affordable aircraft and can barely afford what Boeing & Airbus offer.
I don't cheer for Russia very often. But since Im addicted to commercial aviation, I would love nothing more than to see this plane succeed. (Wish it had a yolk on each side instead of sidesticks)
Great video and explanation of how it all works
Excellent presentation, highly informative, and very interesting for a designer of model jet engines.
I have been regular visitor of Dubai Air Show until 2007. Airbus 380 was displayed there for first time with Emirate painted on it. New engine seams promising, with wider and not too big first turbine blades, like Trident. Looks like it will achieve all the power at competitively lower RPM.
I just stumbled upon video and checked out channel. Looks like bright future is there
Impressive Russian Technology
Hope that this fantastic project wil go from strengh to strengh......great video....best wishes from UK .
Very well made and a lot of information - Congratulations and keep on the good work!!
Really good learning experience .Thank you
I'm guessing the Pratt & Whitney engines aren't being offered anymore. 😕
You make some Great and Enjoyable Videos - Thank-you !!!
Wonderful presentation of a successful example of import substituation displaying necessity is the mother of invention taking advantage of modern technology. ... Cheers...
This is a really good video!
8:39 it's better described as a turbofan. I know that's what you meant to say.
This is where language nuances come to play. I am 99% certain that Russians refer to turbofans as two-stream turbojets (emphasizing the distinction between core and bypass airstreams, rather than the fact that there is a fan in front). In fact, they wouldn't even use turbojet - but turbo-reactive engine (and further describe which kind as necessary).
¡Gracias / Spasiva!.
Make a video for when the MC 21 finally gets delivered to an airline.
Maybe in ten years😂🤣
As always nice video !!
cool video. more competition will lead to better more efficient engines
Skyships is a very cool and personable channel!
Well done!
The video is so good - watched it in English as well as in Russian
Wow, I'm quite curious about the alloy able to take 2000°C combustion beating, and the injectors (with electronics) able to function at those temperatures plus thrust.
фантастическая по объёму работа, молодцы!
Great video! 👍
Thank you for this video
Great job Russia 🇷🇺 congratulations
Really plaisant of watching your documentery
beautifully presented, great photography and pleasant music. Russian aero technology at its best
Amazing thank you ❤️ 💪🏿
A very good video. Well structured.
Hopefully they will be able to compete against the duopoly, certainly in the home market.
most impressive
Good work Russia you are bringing back the engineering Marvel's of ussr its difficult to build a new engine with no year's of experience good work
I love that you put the warhammer 40k space marine music at 12:00 :D
Russians waking up one morning and deciding they’d given the west a far enough head start going straight to rocket science in a jet engine
