1) Im not even going to respond, as you clearly have no clues about anything. Good job exposing yourself to be a clown.
Just admit that you didn't and still don't know what ECU is. It's clear that you think ECU is a physical component of the F135 turbofan, which is simple incredible. I mean this pure comedic gold, only made possible by a genius IQ of Minusone.
2)How the heck did you under-spec a turbofan if it's not due to capping the engine from performing to its full potential?
I can't read the article for you or understand it for you, but here are the relevant parts. Read them at least
three five times, and if you still don't understand it, then you should really blame your parents and mother nature.
"The original program engine specification allocated 15 kW [kilowatts] of bleed air extraction to support system cooling requirements, and the F135 engine was designed, tested, and qualified to this specification with a level of margin available for future growth," Schmidt wrote. "During the final stages of initial aircraft development, air vehicle cooling requirements grew to exceed planned bleed air extraction."
"To provide the necessary bleed air, the engine is required to run hotter, and the program is realizing the effects of this through an increase in operating temperature, and a decrease in engine life, which is driving earlier depot inductions and an increase in lifecycle cost," the written testimony adds.
And how the heck is that possibly not due to ECU setting glitch (as the fellow in charge admitted to be done unknowingly) given that every components are perfect as you claim the F135 to be? Or is it not?
What glitch are you talking about? Show me the part of the article where this glitch is mentioned.
More importantly, how can ECU have a glitch? It's like saying the budget request for a future bridge has been infected by a computer virus. It's completely nonsensical.
You clearly don't know what ECU is, and it's fine by me if you continue to make an utter fool of yourself by pretending that you do.
