Dec 09 Expansion

Lead needs expansion, the description of the engine seems lacking. I'm not a jet guy, but surely you can put more into it than this?

I've added to the lead, added a bit to the design section, and added the "see-also" section. Is there anything else you're looking for? Also, what part of the structure did you find lacking? Thanks! -SidewinderX (talk) 15:23, 24 December 2009 (UTC)

Looks better.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 01:45, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

 Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II ^Notify_Online 21:30, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Vega Project

   Taiwan NCSIST has formulated a plan for the "Vega Project" since 2014 to develop a propulsion system based on the needs of a new generation of fighters after 2020, but the overall budget is not large, and the initial stage is mainly based on evaluation, and in 2016, the board of directors of the Chinese Academy of Sciences approved the application for the annual national defense key technology research and development donation subsidy, and reported it to the Taiwan National Defense Armaments Bureau for construction. Since the TFE-1042-70 engine was funded and owned by the Republic of China, the "Vega Star" program was developed on this basis.[26] The director of the general discipline department of Taiwan Air Force Aviation Technology College said that after the successful development of the AIDC F-CK-1 Ching-kuo fighter, Taiwan Air Force Aviation Technology College has the number 1011~1014 (TFE-1042) engine, in order to cooperate with the Air Force to develop the next generation of fighters. Reverse engineer engine No.1014 to develop a next-generation engine.[27] The NCSIST is currently developing a new fighter jet engine under the project name "Vega." However, the project has failed to meet its expected goals and is facing significant challenges. The military initially planned to pursue both independent research and development (R&D) and external procurement, but due to the slow progress of the self-development efforts, the focus has shifted primarily to acquiring mature fighter jet engines from external sources. The Advanced Defense Fighter (ADF) program requires a dual-engine thrust of 22,000 pounds. The military has considered purchasing the F414 engine from GE, which has a single-engine thrust of 13,000 pounds, totaling 26,000 pounds for two engines. With the second phase of the "Vega" project being halted, the Ministry of National Defense, under limited budget constraints, is prioritizing the procurement of the F414 engines. The military expresses concern about the process of acquiring the F414 engines, particularly in light of potential policy changes from the U.S. side. They are worried that any shifts in U.S. policy could impact the availability and terms of the engine procurement.[28][29][30]
