The TRI60 demonstrated start-up and acceleration to cruise thrust in less than five seconds entirely by means of the windmilling effect created by ram pressure. At launch, the only engine-starting actions required are the opening of the fuel cock and the firing of two pyrotechnic igniters in the combustion chamber. 1, record 1, English, - pyrotechnic%20igniter
