Topic: SNECMA Atar 8

	SNECMA Atar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SNECMA Atar is a single-shaft turbojet with a 9-stage axial-flow compressor and a 2-stage turbine with or without afterburner.
		Atar 8 - two-stage turbine and improved compressor, non-afterburning, developed in 1954-1956.
		Atar 9K-50 - improved Atar 9C with a redesigned turbine and upgraded compressor resulting in improved fuel consumption and thrust; used in Dassault Mirage F1 and Mirage 50.

		The largest of these (which weighed over 50% more than the C.450) was calculated to fly beyond Mach 2, with a 285 m/s climb rate at 2 km altitude, and be able to climb from 1 km to 15 km altitude in 35 s.
		These projects were not pursued, however, because SNECMA did not have engines in the right thrust class for these aircraft.
		SNECMA designed a flying jeep called Pégase (Pegasus) around 1963, similar to the Breguet flying jeeps.

	On the runway with Snecma at the 45th Paris Air Show
		Snecma could arguably lay claim to being the oldest aircraft engine manufacturer in the world, but it also suffered from a considerable technology gap with its competitors.
		Snecma's new jet engine department also worked on two turboprop engine models (TA 1,500 and 5,000 hp), along with Rateau, a French firm specialized in turbine propulsion.
		The Atar C400 P2, dubbed "Atar volant", made its first demonstration flight in 1957, followed by the construction of the C450 Coléoptère, an experimental plane with an annular wing.

	On the runway with Snecma at the 45th Paris Air Show
		Over these 25 years, the Snecma group also underwent profound changes, in particular the increasing weight of its equipment businesses, coupled with external growth and global presence.
		Snecma's collaboration with General Electric doesn't stop with the CFM56, but is also going from strength to strength on high-thrust commercial turbofans.
		But even then Snecma was looking ahead to the next generation, and in 1980 it launched a demonstration program for the M88 military jet engine.

	Airfix 1/48 Etendard IVP
		It was equipped with two 30mm canons on an internal frame easy to remove for maintenance, and a Matra rocket launcher in a weapons bay.
		However, the LWTSF specification required the adoption of a Bristol Orpheus 12 engine, which was inferior to the Atar since it lacked an afterburner.
		On December 19, 1956, the Navy announced an order for the prototype Étendard IVM, as an attack and medium/low altitude interceptor, fitted with a SNECMA Atar 8, to be based on the new aircraft carriers Clemenceau and Foch then in construction.

	The Dassault Mirage III/5/50 Series
		In the mid-1960s, one Mirage IIIE was fitted with the improved SNECMA Atar 09K-6 turbojet for trials, and given the confusing designation of "Mirage IIIC2".
		The prototype, a conversion of a Mirage IIIR, flew in December 1982.
		It was also fitted with the improved Atar 09C-3 turbojet of the Mirage IIIE, instead of the Atar 09B of the Mirage IIIC / IIIB, and so had the "petal" style exhaust instead of the "eyelid" style exhaust.

		The development of this new carrierborne fighter is the subject of modifications relating in particular to the installation of an Atar 8 turbojet (alternative Atar 9 without afterburning), a fuselage redrawn according to the law of the surfaces and an increase in the surface of the wing to compensate the weight increase.
		Its structure is reinforced for catapult-launching and the landing.

		Coleoptere, SNECMA C.450 The Coleoptere was an experimental tail-sitting VTOL aicraft with an annular wing.
		This was a combination of turbojet engine and a ramjet; the Atar jet was fitted inside a 1.37m diameter ramjet duct.

	The Dassault Mirage F1
		It was powered by a single SNECMA Atar 09K50 afterburning turbojet, derived from the Atar 09K used on the twin-engine Dassault Mirage IV bomber.
		The Atar 09K50 provided a maximum dry thrust of 49.03 kN (5,000 kgp / 11,025 lbf) and an afterburning thrust of 70.21 kN (7,160 kgp / 15,785 lbf); it was more reliable and had incrementally better thrust and fuel economy than the Atar 09C series engines used on the Mirage III/5.
		South Africa did obtain a license to build the F1 and the Atar 09K50 engine; no F1s were ever built there, but 09K50s were manufactured, possibly being used for replacements on F1s, and definitely used as powerplants for an extensive Mirage III upgrade called the "Cheetah".

	Unreal Aircraft - Beating Gravity - SNECMA C.450-01 Coléoptère
		In 1952, SNECMA, of France, acquired the rights to the annular-wing concept of von Zborowski, and set about developing the unique design into a high performance compact combat aircraft.
		In these designs the aircraft rose vertically on the thrust of its turbojet, increasing speed until the wing generated enough lift for normal forward flight.
		The single prototype crashed in July of that year, after a short but quite successful test program which was not proceeded with any further.

	Dassault-Aviation Étendard IVM/ P/ PM [in english]
		The plane was to be fitted with two SNECMA R-105 engines, but this prototype was issued two Turboméca Gabizo engines instead.
		Upon first glance it looks like an Étendard II, but was in fact 15% larger, and was fitted with a single SNECMA Atar 101E engine with an 8-stage compressor and a single stage reactor (3 500kg of thrust).
		It is an attack and medium/low interception aircraft fitted with a SNECMA Atar 8 4 500kg engine, based on the then in construction Clemenceau and Foch aircraft carriers.

		Developed and built within the framework of a programme for a light interceptor, defined by the French Air Force following the Korean war (1950-53), the Mirage III was a single-engine fighter-bomber.
		After a number of experimental prototypes that flew from 1956 with the Atar 101G turbojet, the Mirage IIIA pre-production type flew in May 1958 with the considerably more powerful Atar 9B turbojet.
		This paved the way for the two initial service models, namely the Mirage IIIB tandem-seat trainer without radar and the Mirage IIIC single-seat interceptor with the Cyrano Ibis radar and provision for the two cannons to be replaced by a rocket pack for improved climb and celing.

		Copyright © 1997-1999 by Juan Carlos Barroux R. Chile became the first customer of this newer version of the Mirage family, which consisted basically in a Mirage 5 powered by the Snecma Atar 9K-50 engine also used by the Mirage F1, when in 1979 bought 14 single-seaters and 2 two-seaters.
		Due to the tensions with Argentina at that time, the first 8 single-seat fighters were Mirage 5F that were quickly modified by Dassault to the Mirage 50FC standard.
		During 1982-83 the FACh received 6 new built single-seaters Mirage 50C and 2 two-seaters Mirage 50DC (which used the old Snecma Atar 09C).
