Gas Turbines and Jet Engines; Non-Aircraft Prime Mover, Aircraft Non-Prime Mover, and Components

NATO Supply Class 2835 refers to Gas Turbines And Jet Engines; Non-Aircraft Prime Mover, Aircraft Non-Prime Mover, And Components. This class is a part of NATO Supply Group 28, which encompasses Engines, Turbines, And Components.

Gas turbines and jet engines are used in various applications, including power generation, propulsion systems for aircraft, and industrial processes. The non-aircraft prime mover category refers to gas turbines and jet engines used in land-based power generation, such as in power plants or industrial facilities. These engines are designed to provide mechanical power for driving generators, pumps, compressors, and other equipment.

On the other hand, the aircraft non-prime mover category includes gas turbines and jet engines used in aircraft for propulsion. These engines are specifically designed to generate thrust and propel the aircraft through the air.

Components within this supply class refer to the various parts and accessories that are used in gas turbines and jet engines. This can include items such as fuel systems, combustion chambers, compressors, turbines, exhaust systems, and control systems.

The NATO Supply Class 2835 plays a crucial role in ensuring the availability and maintenance of gas turbines and jet engines for both land-based and aircraft applications within the NATO alliance. It helps in standardizing the classification and procurement of these engines and their components, facilitating interoperability and logistical support among NATO member countries.
