How do military aircraft like the F-16 achieve supersonic speeds? It’s all thanks to the afterburner. An afterburner is made ...

When the afterburner isn't engaged and the jet is flying at cruising speed, the engine acts as a typical turbojet. It might add an extra 50% of thrust, but pilots have to use the afterburner ...
