Research abstract
We propose to design, build and in the option period demonstrate an updated PMDC based electric starting system for both engines of an E2-D turbine powered aircraft. The operating voltage will be adjusted to receive power from either 115VAC three phase or 270 volt DC sources. The net weight of the electrical system should be very close to the pneumatic one, depending on the Navy battery pack selected.
