Excerpt: Double Mamba The Double Mamba was an Armstrong Siddeley gas turbine turboprop engine design developed in the late 1940s of around 3,000 4,000 hp (2,500 3,000 kW). It was used mostly on the Fairey Gannet anti-submarine aircraft developed for the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy . Design and development The Double Mamba (also known as the Twin Mamba ) was a development of the Armstrong Siddeley Mamba with two Mambas driving contra-rotating propellers through a combining gearbox . Engine starting was by cartridge, however, forced air restart was achieved in flight. One engine could be shut down in flight to conserve fuel. Variants and applications The numbering system for these engines reflects the obvious linkage to their Mamba lineage: AS = Armstrong Siddeley M = Mamba D = Double num = model Model: Thrust (ehp): Component engines: Aircraft fitted The Double Mamba engine was also proposed for the Westland Westminster, a 30-seat helicopter that was later prototyped with another engine.
