A U.S. Marine MV-22B Osprey lands at Babadag Training Area, Romania, in this 2015 photo illustration, kicking up clouds of potentially dangerous particulates in the process. Research at NPS employing the latest in Ultra High Temperature Ceramics has the potential to increase the resilience of turbine engines to particulate ingestion, critical for DOD aircraft operating in sandy and salty environments.
