Allison J71
- REDIRECT Template:Infobox aircraft engine
Template:Redirect category shell
The Allison J71 was a single spool turbojet engine, designed and built in the United States. It began development in 1948 as a much modified J35, originally designated J35-A-23.[1]
Operational history
The Allison J71 turbojet powered the Douglas B-66 Destroyer and the McDonnell F3H-2 Demon after the failed Westinghouse J40 proved unworkable. The prototype P6M-1 SeaMasters were also fitted with the engine.
