Six General Electric YJ93-GE-3 engines power XB-70, designed for Mach 3 cruise; for purposes of discussion, propulsion system has been subdivided into fuel system, inlet development and engine compatibility, and engine installation; importance of inlet-engine compatibility to propulsion system is emphasized, and methods of testing compatibility on ground are illustrated; examples of engine configuration, engine mounts, engine heat shroud, electric thrust control actuator, and engine compartment cooling system development are given; use of ground test stand in demonstrating engine installation compatibility and installation problem solving is shown.
