German government supplying 50 per cent of development costs with remaining finance being provided by two engine companies. Clearance given for manufacture of total of 21 bench, flight and production standard engines. First run was in January 1969 at Bristol, and first flight of 614 late this year. Phase 1 M45H-C to give full 8,2451b design rating, with slightly modified Phase 2 engines giving over 9,0001b. Initial Phase 1 engines (M45H-D) being supplied derated to 7,7601b.

Power unit for the Mach 2.2 Concorde being jointly developed by the Division and Snecma, the Olympus 593 being derived from the Olympus 593D, itself a civil counterpart of the Olympus 320 for the erst while BAC TSR-2. R-R is responsible for the engine as a gas generator and Snecma has authority for the entire exhaust system. Programme is shared approximately 50/50, and development is well advanced with over 30 593s built. Following the first flight in Con corde in March 1969, operation of the engines in 001 and 002 was reported as exceptionally good. Over 8,500hr total test time has now been completed, 75 per cent of this being on the bench. Con corde 001, with its 32,9001b Olympus 593-2As cleared to Mach 1.6, exceeded 1,000 m.p.h. last month. Flight clearance of 34.7001b Olympus 593-3Bs to Mach 2 as imminent. The Stage O engine of 38,0501b, now designated Mk 601, is to be available for service in 1973. After two year's airline service it becomes Mk 611 (pre viously Stage 1) and without further modification is re-rated to 38,4001b. A subsequent new version with annular combustor and other changes giving reduced s.f.c. and lower weight is Mk 621 also of 38,4001b. Kits to be available for converting Mk 611 to Mk 621. Engine has growth potential to around 40,0001b. (See also Concorde Engine Support Organisation Ltd.) (Olympus 593 Mk 601) Seven-stage 1-p compressor, seven-stage h-p compressor, cannular combustor with eight flame tubes, single-stage h-p and 1-p turbines, simple single-gutter afterburner, cascade-type thrust reverser, multi-lobe retractable noise suppressor, multi-flap independently variable primary and secondary nozzles. Take-off 38,0501b; mass flow 4501b/sec; pressure ratio 9.3:1; length (flange to flange) 138.22in; length (intake flange to final nozzle) 280in; diameter 47.85in; weight 5,8141b. Olympus Military two-shaft turbojet. Sole application is Hawker Siddeley Vulcan. Provided basis for Concorde engine. Applications Hawker Siddeley Vulcan B.l, 4x Olympus Mk 101 (11,0001b) or Mk 102 (12,0001b) or Mk 104 (13,5001b). Hawker Siddeley Vulcan B.2, 4 X Olympus Mk 201 (17,O01b) or Mk 301 (20,0001b).
