I know that some fighter jets have somewhat like WEP (war emergency power). MiG-21Bis/R-25 -13,000lb dry/15650 AFB/19-20,000 "Chrezvychayniy Regime" (WEP) Kfir C2/J79 -"Combat Plus" F16/J79 Prototype- "Combat Plus" F-8 Crusader "Waweoff power" Now, I know for a MiG. Any other airplanes/engines that can be "overrevv'd"? The B-58 Hustler used 100% as Military Power, plus variable afterburners on all 4 engines which had computer activated overspeed under certain conditions. The pilot could also manually lift the throttles over a detent and select overspeed himself. -- Darrell R. Schmidt B-58 Hustler History: http://members.cox.net/dschmidt1/ -
