Dick,
Brian helped us out earlier saying the J58 behaved like a partial ramjet at about M2 and above due to the 20% of its inlet flow having 4 stages of work and then bypassed straight to the afterburner.
From a pedants POV, can we consider a TF30, for example, at M2 with 50%? of its inlet flow having 3 stages of work and then bypassed straight to the afterburner also behaving like a partial ramjet? If not, why not?
Thanks
PK
