@Apophenia
I have some further Adour entries for you!
RT.172-30
1974 project, upgrade option for Jaguar.
RT.172-58C
1978 project, a -58 with improved HP compressor blades; 5,260lbf dry, 8,470lbf reheated. Offered for 'Big Wing' Jaguar.
RT.172-63
1978 project, had all the features of the -69 but with a new afterburner developed from RB.199 technology; 5,540lbf dry, 10,100lbf reheated. Offered for 'Big Wing' Jaguar.
RT.172-69
1978 project, very similar to the -58C but with a 3-stage LP compressor and new turbine blades made by using a directionally solidified cast process. Digital fuel control system. 5,390lbf dry, 9,200lbf reheated. Offered for 'Big Wing' Jaguar.
I do have a mystery engine though.
An engine labelled "Rolls Royce 802"
It looks a bit like an RB.231 but equally could be an Adour with a fat reheat section. I don't know of any Adour Mk.802 however, and 802 would seem to indicate an export engine?
