Abstract

The article presents a study evaluating the current crude oil feedstock available at BSR for producing Jet A-1K fuel for fighter aircraft. Unlike Jet A-1 fuel, Jet A-1K is a specialized fuel produced according to stringent standards for quality, stability, and performance under the extreme conditions encountered by military aircraft. By comparing various crude oil feedstocks, the authors identified key factors that influence the quality of the final product and proposed optimal solutions for selecting the most suitable feedstock. The research findings not only contribute to improving the product quality but also support enhancing self-reliance in fuel production for Vietnam's military aviation sector.
