美国《每日防务》2007年8月16日报道]
普惠公司已在3家公司竞争下一代美国战斗机发动机技术验证项目中失利。通用电气（GE）公司和罗罗美国公司各赢得美国空军研究实验室的自适应通用发动机技术（ADVENT）项目的一项合同，验证变循环发动机。该发动机将超声速冲刺所需的高推力和亚声速耐航速度飞行所需的燃油效率结合于一体。
普惠公司已在制造洛克希德·马丁公司F-22战斗机的动力装置F119发动机，并正在研制其一种派生型发动机F135，作为F-35联合攻击战斗机动力装置。GE和罗罗公司已组队研发F136作为F-35替换发动机，但是该项目面临着取消的威胁。
GE公司已获得总值2.31亿美元的ADVENT合同，而2.96亿美元的合同也已授予位于印第安纳波利斯的罗罗公司Liberty工厂。地面验证发动机计划2012年运行。GE和罗罗公司曾决定分别投标ADVENT项目，但双方同意如果任何一家或两家赢得合同，应提供其所研发的技术插入F136发动机。所以竞争失败是对普惠公司和它的F135计划的双重打击。
作为更大型的国家通用经济可承受先进涡轮发动机（VAATE）计划的一部分，ADVENT项目的重点是研制和验证在低涵道比和高推力之间改变发动机循环的能力。高推力是飞机超声速冲刺所要求的，而高涵道比和低燃油消耗是飞机亚音速耐航飞行所必需。
这样的发动机可以装备需要高速和长航时的未来战斗机，以执行远程、持久攻击和侦察任务。但是美国空军研究实验室说过，ADVENT技术将不能按时为美国空军的下一代轰炸机做好准备，如果它坚持在2018年前形成初始作战能力的话。美国《每日防务》2007年8月16日报道]

The 21 st century has brought significant changes in the threats we face as a nation, and the ways we must defend ourselves.
F-22 takeoff, overhead pass and missile launch.
The difficult lessons of recent years have emphasized the importance of being prepared for other kinds of warfare than the traditional ones we faced in the past.
Tiltrotor aircraft unloading tank, V-22 takeoff and rotor transition.
Based on new understanding of our changing security environment, the Department of Defense has identified four types of warfare we must prepare for when planning for future confrontations. New propulsion capabilities, based on a renewed focus on turbine engine research, are vital to address these challenges.
Screen build of terrorist with AK-47, computer screen, atomic blast, and tanks to illustrate the four types of warfare.
One constant in this new era of warfare is that turbine engines are for now, and
the foreseeable future, the prime movers for America’s airborne war fighting capability.
F-35 nozzle transition and vertical liftoff.
Turbine engines are, also, a big business for our country, providing 82,600 industry jobs and $4.1B dollars of industry payrolls. The DoD invests over 7 billion dollars a year to maintain and upgrade its turbine engine fleet. Nearly 50,000 American made turbine engines valued at 50- 75 billion dollars power military aircraft worldwide while commercial aircraft use over 79,000 with a value of 120- 160 billion dollars. The U. S. turbine engine industry adds significantly to our balance of trade. This market share is beginning to erode due to increasing competition from overseas.

This new era brings significant challenges to our ability to conduct war from the air, not only from new threats, but from logistics as well.
Artist’s rendition of Navy UCAS launching from aircraft carrier.
One of the most pressing challenges for military planners today is the rising cost and constricted availability of fuel. The June 2006 cost of jet fuel rose 178% from the average 2004 price. The DoD currently spends over 11.9 billion dollars a year on turbine engine fuel. Specific Fuel Consumption improvement in the DoD turbine engine fleet is a key parameter for military cost reduction.

The cost of sustainment activities has reached $4.5 billion a year. Engines that spend more time on the wing and require less maintenance are needed to reverse this growing expense.
Three photos of maintenance activities in engine shop.
Safety and operational readiness, always key factors in DoD thinking, are becoming increasingly important with the heightened sortie rates of the Global War on Terror. Engines with built in durability will help keep our planes and pilots in the air.
Two photos of engine failures on the ground.
VAATE is the national turbine engine technology plan that will provide the future propulsion capability our war fighters need to combat these changing threats to our security. Comprised of all sectors of the Department of Defense, NASA, the Department of Energy, six major engine companies and three airframe manufacturers, VAATE is a totally integrated, physics-based, turbine engine technology program chaired by the Office of the Secretary of Defense. The program includes technical activities, which will improve turbine engine capabilities beyond those of a year 2000 baseline engine while reducing all facets of engine cost.

Shots of engine design activities.
VAATE’s mission is to develop, demonstrate and transition advanced, multi-use, turbine engine technologies that provide a revolutionary improvement in affordable capability to a broad range of legacy, emerging and future propulsion and power needs, with explicit versatility for dual use application.
VAATE logo with text of mission statement.
Propulsion systems designed to protect our Nation in the 21 st Century will require greater engine/airframe integration. VAATE addresses the total propulsion system from inlet to exhaust and includes thermal management and power generation research to support future operational needs.
Screen build of VAATE engine cutaway with images of new technologies.
By coupling capability improvement in thrust-to-weight and specific fuel consumption with reductions in development, production, and maintenance costs, VAATE’s focus on affordable capability will produce engines that have improved performance while holding the line or reducing key costs.
Screen build of Cost/Capability index equation.
VAATE is a three-phase technology program with a defined goal set that will produce a 10X improvement in affordable turbine engine capability by 2017.
Screen build of goals for VAATE supported engine types.
While VAATE will accomplish all of these goals without sacrificing improvements in aircraft thrust-to-weight, it also addresses the key cost drivers to our military turbine engine fleet.
F-22s in flight.
VAATE engines will reduce engine thrust specific fuel consumption by as much as 25%. In addition, VAATE research leading to a Single Battlespace Fuel will enhance operational affordability while reducing our dependence on foreign fuel supplies.

By reducing development and production costs, VAATE will ensure America’s leadership in the world turbine engine marketplace.
Shots of F119 and F135 engines running on test stands.
VAATE has a major emphasis to ensure propulsion safety and affordable readiness with specific objectives to reduce propulsion related class A mishaps by 75%, maintenance costs by 10%, and doubling average engine time on wing.
Shots of turbine engine failures and a turbine engine at a crash site.

VAATE’s Technology Development Approach, the means for achieving program goals, is physics-based and rooted in a proven and respected maturation process that has delivered major new capabilities to our war fighters.
Screen build showing new components, engine demonstrators, and aircraft they will transition to.
High Impact Technologies research yields advanced propulsion system components……
Shots of computer automated design of engine components.
That are verified in advanced technology demonstrators which duplicate the operational engine environment targeted for transition.
F-119 and F135 engines on test stands.
Once these demonstrations prove a mature technology readiness level (TRL 6) the new technologies can be transitioned into legacy, emerging or future weapon systems.
F-35 vertical takeoff and horizontal flight,
Gas turbine engine science and technology is a key component to US military supremacy, as well as economic and national security. The VAATE program has a capability focused investment strategy for providing revolutionary, integrated propulsion system technologies to enable each of the critical military capability needs identified by the Department of Defense.

The research efforts for these VAATE “game changing concepts” are currently underway and will enable the airborne capabilities the DoD is seeking. Here are a few examples: (zoom out selected engines and show aircraft animations to match.)
Six “Game Changing” concept engines.
The Efficient Small Scale Propulsion system will provide the reduced fuel consumption and production costs needed to enable transformational, long range, C2ISR capabilities.
ESSP engine,
The Small Heavy Fuel Engine offers affordable propulsion for UAV’s and manned aircraft with an emphasis on improved range, payload and durability.
SHFE engine
The High Speed Turbine Engine Demonstrator is a supersonic, expendable engine that will provide extensive, low cost, mach 4+ weapon propulsion capability across multiple launch platforms.
HiSTED engine
The Compact Efficient Direct Lift Engine is an innovative, game changing, concept, which dispenses with the ducting or shafts and clutches of current lift fan engines. CEEDLE will enable vertical take off and landing for large fixed wing cargo aircraft allowing them to operate more freely around the world without relying on prepared runways for ingress and egress.
The Highly Efficient Embedded Turbine Engine is being developed to power mid and high altitude intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance platforms.

HEETE engine
Another game changer is the Adaptive Cycle Engine which adapt it’s characteristics to optimize performance for multiple flight conditions. This engine will provide very high military thrust performance at supersonic speeds, then internally adjust itself to operate more like a commercial engine at subsonic speeds.
ACE will enable a long range strike aircraft which can fly long distances to it’s target at Mach 2.4 without augmentation and then adapt to a fuel saving loiter mode to give it persistent coverage for many hours. When used as a platform to launch a turbine powered, precise, mach 4+ missile it will enable the ability to penetrate a hedge of anti access threats and quickly hold targets at risk from long, stand off, distances.
