Tumansky RD-9

The Tumanski RD -9 ( originally to 1956 Mikulin AM-9 ) was a single-shaft turbojet jet engine, which was developed in the USSR and manufactured in large series.

The engine was developed from the Mikulin AM- 5 when the compressor has been redesigned. It was the first jet engine, which was fully developed in the USSR and reached the production stage. 1953 passed its acceptance run with 25.5 kN ( without afterburner ).

In the series model RD -9B is a jet engine with a nine -stage axial compressor and a tube - annular combustion chamber with ten fuel pipes. Compared to the output engine, an afterburner was supplemented with variable exhaust nozzle. The turbine has two stages and is also flowed through axially. This version was produced from 1955 series. The acceleration time from idle to full power was up to 17 s

RD -9 versions

  • RD -9A and RD 9AK - versions without afterburner for the Yakovlev Yak -25 Yakovlev Yak -26
  • RD- 9AF -300 and RD- 9AF2 -300 - Versions with afterburner for the Yakovlev Yak -27 Yakovlev Yak -28
  • RD -9B - version with afterburner for the MiG -19
  • RD 9BF -811 - more advanced version of the MiG -19
  • RD 9FK - design for cruise missiles K -10S

The RD- 9B was used in the first prototype of the 152 / I V1 from the VEB Flugzeugwerke Dresden, in the later models were replaced then by the specially developed Pirna 014
