KJ-165 engine
Compact propulsion
for interceptor UAVs.
KJ-165 is a finished, lightweight PA-KO turbojet engine for interceptor UAVs. The Standard configuration includes an external fuel pump and an external ECU.
The ECU manages engine start, fuel metering and engine monitoring. It provides in-flight restart following flameout and engine operating telemetry.
Standard configuration
External pump.
External ECU.
The engine uses an external fuel pump and a separate ECU for fuel supply and electronic engine control.
Electronic control
External ECU
The ECU provides engine start, emergency in-flight restart following flameout, and engine operating telemetry. It monitors shaft speed and exhaust gas temperature and controls fuel delivery.
