A J85 afterburning turbine engine is seen here operating at a maximum thrust conditions on a test stand at UTSI’s Propulsion Research Facility. The engine is being used to evaluate and validate new test techniques and technologies for near-term use in ground testing on the engines powering the F-22A Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II Join Strike Fighter at Arnold. The J85 is the power plant for the T-38 Talon, an American supersonic jet trainer used by the U.S. Air Force and a host of other countries. (Photo provided)
