Withstand Hellish Temperatures: Heat-Resistant Alloys for PD-35 Aircraft Engine Outperform Global Counterparts

The development is being carried out by specialists from the Ufa Engine-Building Plant

Lightweight heat-resistant alloys for a promising Russian aircraft engine surpass global counterparts. This was stated by the head of Bashkiria, Radiy Khabirov.

He specified that innovative materials are being developed at the Ufa Engine-Building Production Association (UMPO, part of the United Engine Corporation).

The company also mass-produces hollow blades for the PD-14 aircraft engine.

The lightweight heat-resistant alloys created here for the promising PD-35 engine even surpass global counterparts. The institute's technologies for Rosatom's gas centrifuges ensure the country's leadership in nuclear energy.

It should be noted that the PD-35 has entered the second stage of testing. Domestic compressor and turbine parts are being tested on the unit. The United Engine Corporation (UEC) stated that they had performed more than 50 launches of the PD-35, and as a result, it was possible to achieve a thrust of more than 35 tons when reaching takeoff mode.
