380 AC bus frequency

Interesting..
Slower than I expected but it makes sense that they relaxed frequency tolerance. Nowadays, designing small and light rectifiers that can take a wide frequency range is easy. Input transformers can be altogether dispensed with.

And now that I think of it again, maybe fighter jets don't bother with AC bus at all.
