EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the Rolls-Royce Clyde-powered prototype Westland Wyvern TF2, registration VP120, undergoes crucial thrust measuring trials at Yeovil in the late 1950s. The Westland Wyvern, a versatile and advanced British naval aircraft, was designed primarily for the Royal Navy's Fleet Air Arm to perform various roles, including anti-submarine warfare, reconnaissance, and ground-attack missions. The Rolls-Royce Clyde engine, a twin-spool turbojet, was a significant development in aviation technology during that era. Its advanced design provided an impressive thrust of 6,400 pounds-force, making it a powerful and efficient engine for the Wyvern. This image captures the moment during the testing phase, where engineers meticulously measured the engine's performance to ensure optimal functionality and reliability. The Wyvern TF2, with its distinctive swept-wing design and tail configuration, sits proudly on the tarmac of Yeovil airfield. The engine's exhaust plumes billow out, indicating the engine's power and intensity during the trials. The image also showcases the intricate details of the engine, with its complex fan blades and engine casing, emphasizing the engineering prowess of the time. This photograph is an essential piece of aviation history, showcasing the Rolls-Royce Clyde engine's crucial role in powering the Westland Wyvern TF2 during its development phase. The successful integration of this engine played a significant part in the Wyvern's impressive capabilities and its eventual deployment with the Royal Navy.
