The Power Jets WU (Whittle Unit) was a series of three very different experimental jet engines produced and tested by Frank Whittle and his small team in the late 1930s. (en) Le Power Jets WU (WU pour « Whittle Unit ») était en fait une série de trois turboréacteurs expérimentaux très différents, produits et testés par l'ingénieur britannique Frank Whittle et sa petite équipe à la fin des années 1930. (fr) パワージェッツ WUはフランク・ホイットルと彼の小規模なチームによって1930年代末に開発、試験された1連の3台の大きく異なる実験用ジェットエンジンである。別名ホイットル ユニット。 (ja) |
