Aircraft Type and Features.

The UJ1672A is a high speed subsonic, lightweight, very high performance sport / aerobatic jet aircraft that has a unique shape / configuration. It has similar flying capabilities to a modern military jet fighter while being substantially less complex due to its compact size, simplified low-part-count aircraft structure, simplified flight control system architecture and turbojet powerplant configuration. The UJ1672A has been developed using conventional aerospace design methods and proven technologies to minimise risk and the likelihood of technical difficulties and to ensure it will fly.

Designation

• The UltraJet™1672A known as the UJ1672A with '1672" representing the birthdate of the aircraft designer Terry Burton and 'A" the first version of the aircraft.

Configuration

• High wing with large surface area and moderate leading edge sweep, plain trailing edge flaps and ailerons
• Non-wet fuel tanks
• Non-pressurised cockpit
• Retractable landing gear
• Upswept rear lower fuselage
• Speed brake on the top aft fuselage
• Two vertical tails canted outward from the vertical
• All moving horizontal tailplane

Flying Controls

• All-electric flight control system
• Dual setup for redundancy

Structure

• Advanced carbon composite, aluminium, steel, titanium and polycarbonate materials
• Fuselage of composite sandwich construction with minimal frames
• Main wing of composite sandwich construction with composite spars
• Horizontal tailplane and vertical tails of similar construction to the main wing
• Impact resistant for pilot protection
• One-piece polycarbonate windscreen
• Fail safe

Powerplant

• Designated the TB300 with 'TB" representing the name of the engine designer Terry Burton and '300" the 3rd engine design
  
• Two custom designed afterburning turbojets as there are no suitable engines available on the market that allow the level of performance desired
• The TB300 enables a highly tailored engine-airframe integration  
• Dual electronic control unit (ECU) per engine
• Designed with simple architecture for increased reliability and safety
• Variable exhaust nozzle

Instrumentation

• Electronic flight instrumentation system (EFIS)
• ​Basic mechanical backup
  

Landing Gear

• Retractable tricycle with single main wheels and twin nose wheels
• Nose wheel steerable
• Landing gear stressed for no flare repetitive landings

Accommodation

• Single pilot in non-pressurised cockpit
• Customized carbon fibre pilot support structure
• Basic pilot emergency egress system
