3/4 view Rolls Royce
Derwent V engine:
double centrifugal compressor and
1633 Kg (3600 lb) Thrust
Very similar to Rolls Royce NENE engine, the big diameter of the compressor obligued the designers to make use of wide fuselages and nacelles, as happened to Gloster Meteor, Grumman Panther, Mig-15, Lavochkin La-168, among others.
