Turbojet engine
TR-18

Developed in 1973, the TR-18 turbojet engine family has expanded with the development of a derivative whose thrust covers the 90 (200) to 160 daN (360 lbt) range.
Particularly engineered to achieve a high thrust-to-weight ratio, an excellent operating reliability and a low cost of ownership, its simplicity enables it to be considered as an excellent contender for any new application requiring an off-the-shelf engine in this thrust range.
Already selected and produced for many aeronautical platforms, its production has reached a total of more than 1,000 units to date. This engine is particularly used in numerous countries for target drone applications.
