Rybinsk RD-36-35

The Rybinsk RD-36-35 was a small lift turbojet engine, designed for use on V/STOL aircraft at the Rybinsk Engine Design Bureau (RKBM), designed by Pyotr A. Kolesov. Very little is known of this engine, probably due to confusion with the similarly designated Kolesov RD-36 and Lotarev D-36, which have little or no relation to the lift-jet.[1]

Not to be confused with the Kolesov RD-36 and Lotarev D-36, which were much larger turbojet and turbofan engines respectively.

Performance

gollark: I'm not really sure how well it'll work, but it will definitely cost lots.
gollark: The UK government is trying to address this by throwing money at small businesses. A lot of money.
gollark: If, say, potatoes used to cost £10, because people were willing to buy and sell potatoes at that price, but then go down to £5, there's no actual loss of money (directly).
gollark: And you get partial control of the company and whatnot.
gollark: Well, it is sort of, because dividends.
