What were jet engines used for in ww1 and World War 2?
The jet engine was not used in World War 1 because it was not developed until World War 2 by the German Luftwaffe Nazis. They used the fast Jets as fighter jets. There were not many used because their jet plane had problems and they had no methods of dealing with the G Forces. The pilots were not well versed in using jets yet and they struggled using the ones that were built. The US, UK and the USSR did grabbed up the jet technology when the war ended.The jet engine was invented by Frank Whittle (first one ran in April 1937, patent granted in 1932), at roughly the same time von Ohain in Germany came up with the same idea but his early versions couldn't run under their own power (and therefore don't qualify as jet engines) - the first German jet engine ran in September 1937. The Heinkel 178 was the first jet fighter to fly but the RLM (German Air Ministry) decided that jet aircraft weren't needed and cancelled the programme.The Germans and the British had jet fighters in service (Me 262 and Meteor).The claim that "The US, UK and the USSR did grabbed up the jet technology when the war ended" is slightly misleading in that all of those natioSavens already had their own jet engines and were developing them more, but ex-German technology was looked at.
Were the b-52 bombers used in Europe in World War 2?
No the B-52 was first released in 1955, the Americans did not use jet-engined bombers in WW2, German technology was more advanced and they did have Jet engines that powered aircraft and flew in the war. So in short NO.
What technology for planes was invented in World War 2?
* Compact Radar Systems * Jet Turbine Engines
What technology was new to World War 2?
Radar, jet engines and atomic bombs.
What new technology in World War 2 helped Americans after the war?
Jet engines, rocket power and antibiotics
Why was the jet engine invented?
Jet Engine was the greatest development in the industry of Aviation. It was invented so that the airplane can provide more thrust and lift. It made the airplane go even faster.The Jet engine was invented to improve and simplify jet fighter aircraft. Jet engines allow aircraft to fly at higher altitudes than propeller aircraft because of air density at high altitude. The jet engine is more reliable that a piston engine because it is a very simple concept and far fewer moving parts. Jet engines also allow fighter aircraft to fly at far greater speeds by using combustion gases to propel the aircraft rather than a spinning propeller. That is the very basic nuts and bolts awnser. There is much more to be explained but I believe the basics have been covered.well jets were invented in world war 2,which almost answers your question,the full answer is:because each of the contries were trying to win the war,the Germans created it. www.youtube/lookaroundyou:germs.com

Who put propellers on the airplanes in World War 1?
The aircraft mechanics usually put propellors on.
What did World War 2 invent?
The jet aircraft was invented by the Germans during ww2. it was not perfected until after the war was over. Also the jet pack was in stages but never finished, not even to this day
When was the first jet engine reheat invented?
It was invented during WW2 by 'Power Jets' ,a company led by Sir Frank Whittle to increase power and efficiency of early jet engines.
Who invented the jet engine and when?
the first jet engine was ivented in world war 2 by a engish engineer called sir Frank Whittle but it was later invented in Germany by a Dr. Hans von Ohain, but Frank had already patented the jet engine.
Did the b-36 jet engines use jet fuel or the same gas as the 4360 engines?
The jet engines used jet fuel, not gasoline as the 6 main engines did.
Who invented the firstn jet engine?
the first jet engine was invented in world war 2 by a British RAF engineer called sir Frank Whittle but was also invented later in germany by Hans von Ohain, but Frank had already patented it.
