cool ride, big difference between the J79, and the J85
the J79 with AB, puts out 17835lbs of thrust, which combined would be 35670 lbs of thrust.
the J85 which they are using is from the F-5 freedom fighter/t-38.

Marc and I have been to there facilty and know the project well. It is purely for Demo purposes and that thing will never use the HP. We were actually asked to possibly run it in the demo runs. The project has been put on hold due to the economy so who knows if she will hit the water or not
