Analysis: Iranian cruise missile unveiling raises questions about range - IHS Jane's 360

To achieve this range in a domestically produced cruise missile Iran would need an engine with a similar performance to the R95-300 turbofan used in the original Kh-55. However, it is highly unlikely that Iran is capable of producing such an engine.

It is even harder to produce a small turbofan engine for a cruise missile than it a standard-sized engine due to the smaller components and higher pressures and temperatures involved. Indeed, there are only five known manufacturers that currently make small turbofans that could be used in cruise missiles: Williams International in the United States (F107 and F112); Pratt & Whitney Canada (PW600); AMNTK Soyuz (R95-300) and NPO Saturn (36MT) in Russia; and Motor Sich in Ukraine (MS400). It is unclear if China's turbofan-powered cruise missiles use domestically produced engines or ones imported from Russia or Ukraine.

An alternative explanation is that the Iranians dispensed with the turbofan used on the original Kh-55 and fitted the Soumar with a far simpler and cheaper turbojet engine.

Seems IHS Jane's master experts can't identify a low bypass turbofan engine :

For the people who don't know what a turbofan engine is:

300px-Turbofan_operation.svg.png


It has a core where the power is generated which in turn spins the shaft. The shaft spins a secondary turbine which may be in front of the engine or around the core in other designs. This turbine is responsible to generate bypass flow around the core which is the main drive force of the engine.
 
For example:

How far is Iran with cruise missiles?

Iran has just recently revealed its land attack cruise missiles. So there is no much info about them.

How can you rank a sanctioned nation with others?

Oh god.... it couldn't been more wrong....

For the people who don't know what a turbofan engine is, just watch this video.

Attention, this is a high bypass engine...as you can see from the bypass ratios.

Let me ask from our experts ( @Abii @Zarvan @AUz )

What is the type of this engine ?

Ohh, i get it. :)

That's a TurboJet engine..not a TurboFan.

What you are seeing is the low pressure compressor of a TurboJet.

In the TurboFan engines, there would be a a fan before the low pressure compressor, and bypass duct happens to be after the Fan... without a fan, compressor will simply suck all of the air into the engine, that's why A fan is being used to divert some of the airflow into the bypass.

If you photoshop a fan to the entrance , problem will be solved. :enjoy:

Are you gonna swear at me. o_O

Good job, by posting another turbofan engine's pic....

What you posted is Ukrainian, Motor Sich's P95TM-300 TurboJet.

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Р95-300
"korotkoresursny turbojet engine. It also has the designation "Product 95". Designed for installation on subsonic aircraft"

P95TM-300 is the modified version of P95-300.

I guess, i don't have to say which one looks like yours.

Gonna swear at me now ?

Edit: Before you say, that red thingy is not a fan but just a simple cover.

Why nobody is swearing at me ?? :what:

You don't have any picture from the Engine's exhaust !? :rolleyes:

In another forum somebody said :

R95-300 is turbofan ... but P95-300 is turbojet !!!

:D

Failure ... P = R in russian :lol:
