Request Westland Wyvern (RR Clyde Turboprop) Performance Data

[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhha]

Hi all,

I am looking for the performance data for the Clyde Powered Wyvern VP120. In the book "Westland Wyvern" by 4+, it's mentioned that the Clyde engine achieved 4030 ehp in a test flight.

Cheers.

The Python was 4110. I can't imagine there being any difference worth writing home about.

The Python 3-powered Wyvern S.4 is approximately 3,000 pounds heavier than the Clyde counterpart without drop tanks.

The S.4 also appears to have significantly increased drag, likely due to Westland's introduction of an enlarged fin and tailplane, along with auxiliary fins on the tailplane.

Again, your moniker is awesome.
