The US Air Force is Changing: New Revolutionary Jet Engines With no Moving Parts Are in the Air

In 2021, the US Air Force invested a whopping $1 million in the Wave Engine Corporation to design and build revolutionary pulsejet engines.

Now, only three years later, the company has announced that one of its designs, the J-1 engine, is ready to be implemented by the military. This engine could change not only the US Air Force but aviation as a whole.

Hmmm...I believe the "pulse jet" concept was developed by the Germans during World War II with the V-1 "buzz bomb" cruise missile.

Well, we do owe our jet propulsion expertise to the Nazis, after all. :pondering:

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The Krauts used pulse jet engines for their V-1 buzz bombs in the 1940s.

I hope the Air Force isn't wasting money to develop sliced bread.
