Who created the National Gas Turbine Establishment and was credited with inventing the turbujeet engine?
Frank Whittle Air Commodore Sir Frank Whittle {'1': ", '2': ", '3': ", '4': "} (1 June 1907 – 9 August 1996) was an English Royal Air Force (RAF) engineer air officer. He is credited with single-handedly inventing the turbojet engine. A patent was submitted by Maxime Guillaume in 1921 for a similar invention; however, this was technically unfeasible at the time. Whittle's jet engines were developed some years earlier than those of Germany's Hans von Ohain who was the designer of the first "operational" turbojet engine.
Tumansky R-29 The Tumansky R-29 is a Soviet aircraft turbojet engine that was developed in the early 1970s. It is generally described as being in the "third generation" of Soviet gas turbine engines which are characterized by high thrust-to-weight ratios and the use of turbine air cooling.
