It had a broader chord rudder and a wide chord cowled Pegasus engine.
I can hear the roar of those Pegasus engines to this day.
The maximum take-off thrust available from the Pegasus engine is limited, particularly at the higher ambient temperatures, by the turbine blade temperature.
Pegasus engines are on public display at the following museums:
A dozen others were standing by the island, watching the strange aircraft as the Pegasus engine screamed to life.
The resulting aircraft had a Pegasus 6 engine, with a new design of air intakes, and redesigned wings to improve longitudinal stability.
In contrast, by the end of production over 30,000 Pegasus engines had been built.
Approximately 32,000 Pegasus engines were built.
E1 was powered only by the Pegasus engines, and was designed to test horizontal flight.
The first prototype (E1) first flew on 10 February 1967 with just the two Pegasus engines.
