A study of the application of the turbine bypass engine (TBE) concept to high-performance V/STOL aircraft is in progress. The study is designed to identify the most promising TBE cycles for combination with a remote augmentor lift system (RALS), and to compare them with conventional turbofan RALS and lift-plus-lift/cruise concepts. Three cycles chosen for study are 15- and 30-percent-bypass-bleed TBE with simple RALS and 15-percent-bypass-bleed TBE with a turbo-compressor-RALS combination. Aircraft configurations were developed for the 15-percent-bleed TBE with simple and turbocompressor RALS and sized to a naval, supersonic, deck-launched, intercept mission. Early sizing results indicate that these two concepts give comparable airplane performance, although the simple RALS configuration has some potential design drawbacks that are avoided in the turbo-compressor RALS design.
