“We have a likely set of parameters and the appearance of the engine for a new generation supersonic aircraft,” RIA Novosti quotes the Director General of the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute (TsAGI) Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Kirill Sypalo.
He noted that for such an aircraft, an important requirement is to provide the required thrust and relatively low fuel consumption.
In March, it was reported that preparations began in Russia for a flying laboratory, which will test the first hybrid electric power plant in Russia.
