LΛUNCHER(@launcher):Another E-2 Block 1 mission duty cycle is in the books as the team continues increasing thrust vector control rates, gimbal range, and cycle count. This Block 1 engine has now surpassed 2X its rated service life. Testing will continue to further characterize engine life and thrust vector control performance as the team prepares for engine qualification.
