Allison J33

The General Electric J33 is a turbojet engine based on the General Electric J31. In contrast to this, the flow to the turbine is, however, simplified because the combustion chambers even ran. In its design, it corresponds to the de Havilland Goblin. It has a centrifugal compressor and an axial turbine.

The first test run of the engine, the first of the name General Electric I-40 was, took place on 9 January 1944. General Electric awarded the series production to Allison, so that the engine is also known under the name Allison J33.

In the Lockheed F-94, the engine was equipped with an afterburner and then made ​​up to 26.7 kN thrust.

The J33 was quickly displaced by Axialtriebwerke.
