The Soviet Jet Engine refers to a range of jet propulsion systems developed in the Soviet Union, primarily for military and civilian aircraft. These engines were crucial in advancing aviation technology during the Cold War, enabling the production of high-speed jets like the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15 and the Tupolev Tu-95. Soviet engineers, such as Arkhip Mikhailovich Lyulka and Vladimir Petlyakov, played significant roles in designing these engines. The innovations included turbojet and turbofan designs, which improved efficiency and performance, allowing Soviet aircraft to compete with Western models in speed and range.
