A new turbine native to that country -it is proclaimed to be the first- was designed around 1999 for Avribas “Matador” UAV aircraft.
-It is the TJ-1000 model with 70 Kgf of thrust.
“Polaris TJ-1000” (PiP)
-The Polaris company with the collaboration of the Brazilian Air Force and ITA, has built small axial compressor turbojets for drones and UAVs.
-The TJ-200 is the least powerful, with 200 lbf of thrust, axial compressor and perhaps the beginning of the series with this architecture.
“Polaris TJ-200”
-The TJ-1000, with 1,000 lbf of thrust, weighs 67 Kg and is the one that powers the Avibras AV/TM-300, a small cruise missile.
“Polaris TJ-1000”
-The TJ-1200 is an evolution of the previous one with 1,200 lbf of thrust and 70 Kg of weight.
“Polaris TJ-1200 and missile”
-The TJ-3500 is assumed to deliver 3,500 lbf of thrust. Below we show two photographs.
