Watch the engine M88 of the Rafale fighter!
It only takes 1 hour to remove and install the fighter from the fighter.
To date, Safran has delivered 600+ engines of this model, with a thrust of 16,500 pounds and a total flight duration of 850,000+, with M88-mounted Rafale fighters in service with the French Air Force and Navy, exported to Egypt, Qatar, India, Greece and Croatia.
Thanks to Safran Aircraft Engines' advanced technologies – such as leaf discs (integral vane discs) and powder metallurgy discs, monocrystalline high-pressure turbine blades with ceramic coatings and thermal structural composites – the M88 has been regularly upgraded.
Due to the recent success of Rafale's recent sales (mainly India bought 36 for 7.878 billion euros), Safran Aircraft Engines has been modernizing its industrial facilities to meet the needs of French and export customers. Driven by Industry 4.0 practices and fully automated assembly lines, the M88's annual production has tripled from 2015 to 2020.
