Advanced Air Propulsion
Kosaint is extending its additive-first propulsion development approach to air-breathing propulsion systems.
Our first air propulsion concept is an additive-first turbojet technology demonstrator — exploring how simulation-led design, design-for-additive-manufacturing and advanced manufacturing can simplify the development of compact gas-turbine propulsion hardware.
Rather than treating additive manufacturing as a late-stage production method, Kosaint designs propulsion hardware around the capabilities of advanced manufacturing from the beginning — reducing part count, simplifying assemblies, shortening development cycles and enabling more integrated propulsion architectures.
Additive-first turbojet
A development platform validating a simulation-led workflow for compact air-breathing propulsion hardware.

Longer term, this capability supports the development of turbojet cores, combustors, nozzles, manifolds, heat exchangers, turbine components and other high-performance air-breathing propulsion hardware.
